It is not very often that one thinks of Microsoft as a company that gives out a superior product for the consumer to use, it’s even rarer to think of them as putting it out for free! Therefore, I have to laud Microsoft here for their security suite package that they have given to the consumer.
Security Essentials (MSE) has become a home run for Microsoft in my view. This marks an impressive sea change for Microsoft as they have greatly improved upon their admittedly feeble past attempts at computer security in general.
See here that they are not just putting out a good product but are now winning awards like the VB100 award from the August 2010 Edition of Virus Bulletin. Click here to check that out. Consumers Reports also tested the product superior to most other consumer suites out there for sale!
The Gator's own experience with this product has been in line with these awards and reports. We have actually taken off other "paid for" competing software to fix the problem by finding and removing the malware infecting PC's. Now that's a really rare statement for a Microsoft product. Read an in-depth explanation of MSE and its value from Wikipedia by clicking here . Wiki does a great job of explaining the product and how well it does it's job.
In summation, Id say if your a consumer looking to protect yourself from all the internet's nasty's out there, click here to review and get MSE. Just remember to remove all your other security software before installing MSE.
To all the industry whiner’s and antitrust zealots out there I'd like to say "get off your @$$ and build a better product!!!" some of the stuff I’ve seen purveyed at unreal prices is beyond the pale with the issues we have to combat. The malware (the bad guys) industry is closing in on 6 billion dollars in profits a year and the web has become awash in a flood of reports and articles about how granny got mugged online! An important fact to remember is that 6 billion dollars a year does not just sit idly around folks! Cocaine submarines, border wars, mob hits and people’s destroyed identities and lives are just a pittance of a sample of things that all that money can go towards. Think about that for a moment, the Defense Department does and for much more than a moment!
I again laud Microsoft’s move to take back the internet from perverted porn purveyors and the world mob association’s who have seen fit to take advantage of a systems openness for their own greedy malevolent intentions!
As I have said often and will repeat it here, Vigilance my friends is key to safe surfing and thanks to Microsoft we now have a tool that finally seems to work well!
