  • Microsoft will soon compete with Symantec and McAfee, with plans to
    release a free anti-virus service for personal computers.


    The free service, code-named Morro will offer basic features for fighting
    a wide range of viruses.




    Three years ago, Microsoft entered that security market with Live OneCare,
    which turned out to be a flop. A launch date for their new security
    product has not been announced, though the company said it would happen
    soon.




    Currently, the company is working on releasing a beta version for testing
    and feedbacks. It is being rumored that a beta version has already been
    issued internally by Microsoft for its employees.

    Offering a free antivirus may not serve the purpose. As in today scenario not only selling is important but essense is best of support & post sales service. Also major question is do you really see value in one which is available free ??
