Microsoft to Offer Free Antivirus Software
Posted 11/19/2008 at 08:14:08pm
I have been useing OneCare for some time now. Actually I was a beta tester when Microsoft introduced the suite. To me it would just make sense to have a security suite run as intergrated as possible and it seems a logical step to use a MS security suite with an MS OS, yes? I agree with one of the prior posts, wouldn't use Mcafee disc ontop of my computer, that's a riot! Mcafee bogs your sytem to almost unusable. I am able to use Mcafee suite for free via Comcast but I still went with OneCare. The other "Big One" Symantec takes any user control away and takes away several key Windows features suck as the beloved System Restore. I also tried CA security suite. That was nice but too may add ons even with a suite, still didn't have it all and much like Symantec it's all or nothing. OneCare offers seamless intergration. It uses virtualy no resources and I can use what I do want and tweak what I do. I also love the home network circle tah I can note my dektop as a hub and be sure my daughters don't turn off there firewalls!!!! And we all know why thety would do that. I am looking forward to it becoming free, as long as they don't change it. I found that most people who don't like MS products are MS bashers to begin with but yet "they're a PC" and continue to be.
