Microsoft Security Essentials (FKA Moro) now available, sort of.

Microsoft's free anti-malware now officially known as "Microsoft Security Essentials" is now available for limited download. There's a limited amount of download slots available and it's probably alredy been met. There's always the good old torrent search option though if you just can't wait.

Currently it's only available to folks in the United States, Israel and Brazil (Brazil?). You'll also need to have a verified Genuine version of Windows to install. If you meet all the requirements, be sure to uninstall any other Anti-Virus or Anti-Malware software you have currently.

I've been really happy with Avira Anti-Virus, Avast! and AVG in the past, but since I installed what was formerly known as Moro, I've been impressed. We'll have to wait and see how the Anti-Virus Experts out there evaluate it's actual detection capabilities.
