M$ security essential is a bless

and that's probably the only time you'll hear me saying something is good from microsoft.

since 1982 I was wondering the reason that an "operating system" was open to viruses. Along came the windows products and at that time I was blaming m$ for not having any protection. Companies formed to do the job that the poor product was unable to handle for itself. Until 2009 (then I discovered) the FREE security essentials. The main reason is the 'free' part. When I provide a client with something thats broken, I'm required to fix it with no extra cost. MSE falls to that category. Its a fix that mrt nor defender had been able to provide. For this small market of mine, I got users that are happy now that this product has kept them virus (trouble) free compared to expensive other products that to prove themselves considered a must to claim all memory, cpu, huge chunks of disk space and your attention with spruce popups and end up with an infection anyway.

M$ application named windows, longing to be Aqua without accepting defeat and use bsd for base system, has come a long way. Its only bet is that L-users are so attached to branding that they'll keep their prominent place in the market, as with every hopeless release with a new office product vs openoffice. Still they slipped a full blown office product for FREE, in ultimate, named it WORKS - to save face - charged Ultimate as gold, prayed that users never find out and buy office extra, but limited the chance of lusers downloading openoffice. Also eliminating outlook express and using live (see previous post), cannot ensure that lusers are not gonna be using Thunderbird. If you gonna be a faceless aqua for the techie, why not install ubuntu? that beats aero and other graphic option by a parsec.

Considering all the above, having Q+emu or even a port (like theftright as copyleft) of WINE could be the next release of m$, that would boost computing 300 years to the future. Their trial -still in baby diapers- I believe, is XP-mode. I'm virtualizing daily, consolidating servers too, having a plethora of options with remote desktops as terminals (apps + servers). Its an one way street.

ps: windows 7 stink as bad as vista. its one and the same.
