Security Agents
The AntiSpyware definition files are an in-depth threat identification library to help keep your computer protected from new and possibly unknown threats. Microsoft AntiSpyware comes installed with over 100 real-time active Security Agents. Security Agents help to stop most threats before they can be installed and help protect your privacy and identity as well as helping prevent any unauthorized programs from taking control of your computer.
These agents work much like security checkpoints in your computer, monitoring system, application, and Internet changes and activity for anything potentially hazardous.
With real-time protection activated, many spyware applications can be intercepted and disabled before they can be installed, helping to stop potential security leaks before the spyware has the ability to run.
