Well, I found that Spyware. It was detected by my Firewall.
I wasn't using the internet, but I found two spyware:
live365.com
and the one I was talking about that came back like in an instant:
onlinestores.metaservices.microsoft.com
Is that microsoft.com and safe?
live365 I think I blocked because I had no idea what it was.
By block, I mean like, my firewall lets me block what I want, and I decided to block a few websites I didn't know, never seen or heard about it, and that's why I did. Microsoft.com wasn't on the list, it was like X.X.microsoft.com.
Is onlinestores.metaservices.microsoft.com a microsoft.com website, or spyware?

I see. My friend used Trend Micro's IS and found it to be resource hogging.

Yes resource hogging. By the I mean it takes up a lot of memory just to run. I have seen it.

Oh, I have tons of memory.
Other then that, what is this metastore.microsoft.com thing?
It keeps popping up at random times. This is why I blocked microsoft.com.
Any clues/ideas/hints at what it may be?
