hello skunks,

With the introduction by M$ of their Security Essentials, and free for that matter, I am left wondering who are the winners and the losers in this case? Is the Desktop user truly a winner here? Isn't it like trusting the witch to turn around and offer you treatment? (Where I come from, the theory of bewitching is so strong so allow me to use that analogy, for lack of a better one).
Are other Desktop AV vendors likely to become 'lUsers'?

Let's see: How many of you have opted to deploy M$ Security Essentials on their Desktops as their AV of choice?
A few friends have asked me about a good AV and I've always bent towards Kaspersky, but when they freak at the cost (<2k), I tell them that Microsoft now has a free AV for windows, but I still don't quite trust that advise, yet I really can't justify this mistrust given some reviews I am seeing about Security Essentials.

Bail me out!
