Good point. I suspect this will be looked at as part of the Win7 release and rollout - and in a similar fashion.
AVG free on Win7 is still a hog. MSE runs quiet and there doesn't "appear" to be the performance issues that plague the other free offerings. -----Original Message----- From: Tim Vander Kooi [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, September 29, 2009 2:20 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: MSE is released... I agree. But given that reality, are companies really going to rush to push out this new release from Microsoft? I doubt it myself. Companies that are taking the free or nothing approach are already using AVG or some other free vendor, since upgrading (even to a free product) has inherent costs involved.
