Microsoft Vista build-in Windows AntiSpyware

Filed in: Microsoft, Technology, Windows Vista — October 20th, 2005

The Windows Vista will build-in Windows AntiSpyware, an anti-spyware software by Microsoft.

Microsoft has confirmed plans to bundle anti-spyware protection into Windows Vista, a move that is sure to raise eyebrows among competitors and possibly antitrust regulators.

The Windows AntiSpyware product, which currently ships to consumers as a free standalone application, will be integrated into Vista, as is indicated in the newest beta build of Vista distributed to technical beta testers on Monday.

It is a good news that Microsoft will build in anti-spyware into next Windows (Vista). Spyware is a great problem for today’s Windows. Microsoft created Windows, but then it needs to create another software(AntiSpyware) to solve Windows problem (ok, not exactly Windows fault)… That’s busy!
