You make anti virus software sound like a gun lock on a 9MM.

Does it really matter who is in the anti-virus market? If Microsoft goes
that way, and they have the best knowledge of what they created, what we
can
reasonably expect to see in the words of Bill Gates "Innovation, with rich
user features, deeply embeded in our software".

Wonder if Microsoft will give their new AV product the same crappy treatment
they gave their past AV product...

Perhaps they will release it during XP SP2 and then kill it just in time for
Longhorn. Anyone that puts any faith in this new AV from Microsoft is a
fool.
