Software major Microsoft Corp is now planning to launch free anti-virus service for personal computers and is competing with other anti-virus software production firms such as Symatec Corp and McAfee Inc. Presently the product is under testing and will soon make a trail version(Beta version), which would be available through its website.
The free version contains basic features for fighting with different range of viruses and is named with code-name “Morro”. Previously Microsoft entered market with Live OneCare which was a flop and then the firm announced that it will come out with free service by end of 2009. Though Microsoft said, users can get protection from several types of malicious software, viruses, spyware, rootkits and Trojans the competitor are not seeing Morro as a threat. Symantec Consumer division president said that a full Internet security suite is required for both business and personal use which gives complete protection that anti-virus software cannot give. Another security software maker McAfee which is No.2 in makers of security software said, though they are number of free anti-virus software's in the market it is still enjoying its position and growth. He also said the firm is ready to meet the competition from its competitors.

i find it tough to trust any step taken my MS.. they alwys find a way to shove the unwanted stuff down our throat.. i hope this is really free (and works) and not another try at MS's ugy monopoly tacticts
wow... interesting...
i would like to try it once..
but i like avast home free version for d best security..
moreover, microsoft free me de raha hai to KU6 NA KU6 LOCHA TO HOGA HI :P
technically its microsofts responsibility to have an inbuilt antivirus into the operating system..
I would like MS to improve on their OS rather than invest on all things available on earth. We trust Syamntec, McAfee and Avast far more than MS on this technology.
However, the post was encouraging for those die-hard fans of MS who would love to use the new one "Morro".
@all: Thanks for your valuable feedback friends about Microsoft Anti Virus..
Thank you for the interesting information. It is amusing to see the love/hate relationship with Microsoft. Let us hope this nwe product will also be as good as MS Office.Best regards.
@zero: whatever, most of the indians are addicted to Microsoft products more than any other. And it is common that some sections do not like Microft and some do like it.. Thanks for your views.. :)
I would like to try something like tht.. in the future..
Make website india
@Workhard: thank you for dropping your comment in my blog space.. Try and see it is good software from Microsoft..
Can anyone recommend the robust IT automation utility for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central remote environment manager
? What is your best take in cost vs performance among those three? I need a good advice please... Thanks in advance!
My friend and I were recently discussing about the ubiquitousness of technology in our daily lives. Reading this post makes me think back to that discussion we had, and just how inseparable from electronics we have all become.
I don't mean this in a bad way, of course! Ethical concerns aside... I just hope that as memory gets less expensive, the possibility of copying our memories onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It's a fantasy that I daydream about almost every day.
