Microsoft’s Security Freeware Poised for Beta Launch
Microsoft said Thursday it plans to release a beta test of its free computer security program next week and is on track to launch a finished product in the fall. The program, Microsoft Security Essentials, is designed to find and kill malicious software that can steal passwords and other personal information or turn PCs into spam distribution hubs. Once the PC security software is installed, Microsoft said it will download updated lists of identified malware daily, but will keep a low profile unless it detects dangerous software.
