Microsoft Now Offers Free Protection


















You have to love the irony of this one. Microsoft's inability to create a secure operating system has spawned an entire industry of security software. Rather than include security software, for the security problems that they created, as part of their operating system, they have been willing to sell it at an additional cost for several years.

Today Microsoft announced that beginning with Windows 7, their OneCare product will be free. In typical Microsoft fashion, they will not make this easy for the consumer. Rather than bundling this security product as part of Windows 7, it is a separate download. Are you kidding me?
