Comment MS Doing AV? (Score 0) 830
Haha. I did'nt realize Microsoft had a humor department on campus.
As i recall, Symantec did a lot of the original work on this with MS back in the 80's. Look what happened, MS ended up with truncated versions of Norton's Utilities and AV back then and MS never did a thing to improve on what they originally had.
I say: Too little, too late to a company that keeps trying to be everyone to everybody.
There are far better products out there that are'nt included in "Windows".
And this is coming from a dedicated but very pissed off MS product user for 20 years.
