MS is now oficially an anti-virus vendor. This is not much of a surprise and has been rumored for months. What will it mean to the other anti-virus vendors is yest to bee seen. It looks like this will only be available as part of a security/computer care suite called OneCare.
Here's the really scary part:
"Analysts said a Microsoft antivirus product would be likely to appeal to the large percentage of consumers--close to 75 percent, by some estimates--who have no virus protection loaded on their computers."
Only 25 percent are currently using virus protection? If true, no wonder the Web is such a mess.
