It seems anachronistic that Microsoft would even offer a spyware remover. Much of the spyware infecting Windows operating systems is installed right off the media and sequestered in Systen32 dlls.
As well, a plethora of CLSIDs used in threadding to bad dlls, such as Webcheck.dll, for one, may be found in the registry, and are used as standard components.
Are we to assume, then, that the new spyware tool from Microsoft will literally offer up Windows systems in sacrifice? -- That takes self-effacement to a new level.
Microsoft should instead focus on stopping spyware before it infects the actual computer itself. Especially since, being the creator of the Windows operating system, has far better access to its source code.
Removing spyware AFTER it's embedded in your system is like unlocking all doors/windows, waiting for a burglur to come in, and then subsequently fighting him/her out. You'll get him/her out, but likely suffer cuts and bruises, as well as damage to your house.
The problem was already made even worse because of Microsoft decision to make the default user type an Administrator, thereby granting spyware (and malware in general) any priviledges needed - a "wise" move indeed!
When will Micro$oft get its head out of its @$$ and start supporting older versions of Windows? Some people cannot afford the outrageous price for XP. The companies that produce Ad-Aware and Spybot support various versions; when will MS?
(Lol) ...It occurs to me that for Microsoft to be perfectly honest in offering the Giant beta spyware remover, the latter would, immediately following installation in a Windows system, format the drive and install Linux.
Then the Giant beta would have accomplished its stated mission of removing spyware...
there must be someone stuck in the bowels of the microsoft mega-corporation, confined by the stereotypes of computer geeks who still ********** at age 34, group think prozac ****** and the weight of the greed of the tech market anylists, growth baby growth. this is his cry for help.

I don't think so...
