    aside from microsoft defender beta, i recently find out that microsoft has other tools to keep windows safe from viruses and threats.

    Try Windows Live Safety Center
    "A Web service designed to help ensure the health of your computer with free scanning tools that help you get rid of unwanted software."

    http://safety.live.com/site/en-US/default.htm

    Try Windows One Care LIve
    "A set of security tools that runs quietly on your computer, with little or no intervention needed from you to maintain it."

    Make it safe the microsoft way! :)

    Nice of MS to have beta versions - but soon the BORG will assimulate and credit cards and subscription fees will be required.

    May be usefull in the coporate world - for me I will continue to practice "safe hex" and carry on.

    I love the line ' runs quietly' visions of - You have Vrius You have spyware - warning warning Will Roberston - susbcribe now :D
