Microsoft Security Essentials To Be Final Soon
Microsoft
Written by Patrick Laughner on Monday, September 21, 2009

The folks at Neowin has confirmed that Microsoft Security Essentials will reach it’s final build in coming weeks. Security Essentials is a free Microsoft anti-virus, anti-spyware that will replace Windows Live One Care (which is not free).

Microsoft Security Essentials is not expected to impact full-security suites. It will be targeted at free anti-virus and spyware programs. Janice Chaffin (President of Symantec's Consumer Division) said this, "Microsoft's free product is basically a stripped down version of the OneCare product Microsoft pulled from the shelves. A full Internet security suite is what consumers require today to stay fully protected."

Once it is released, you can expect the Microsoft Security Essentials home page to be updated.
