Microsoft Security Essentials Ship Date Revealed
By Jin Nan Goto
Microsoft’s new anti-malware software which is to intended to replace the discontinued Windows OneCare will be released tomorrow, Sept. 29th. Microsoft Security Essentials, codenamed Morro, was offered earlier this year as a beta to 75,000 users and now it will be made available as a free download to the public. From my use during the beta I found MSE to be a very capable AV software. It offers a much lighter footprint than the massive AV suites and along with Windows Defender, bundled with Windows Vista and Windows 7 and a free download for XP users, it is a great antivirus/antispyware solution.
