Microsoft may charge extra for security software

Share |
<= Previous Post | Next Post =>

Just after I post my incredibly brief summary of computer security I get this... Microsoft will be releasing security software that helps prevent "spyware".  I didn't bother to discover if it might include virus protection or "adware" protection or any other kind of "malware" and I won't until it's released.  Too much software has a reputation for claiming features it will have and then don't.

My boss has a good read on these feature claims:

In my experience, most buyers expect you to try and scam them. It's not their fault. They've been taken by so many times by hucksters in my industry (software/consulting) that they come to expect bullshit emanating from every persons mouth.
