Microsoft says it's introducing a subscription security service that will "make it easier for network technicians at big businesses to make sure computers don't fall prey to spyware or virus attacks."
No way. They're serious?
Scott Stanzel, Senior Product Manager in Microsoft's security technology unit (there's an oxymoron), said the product will be called Client Protection.
Ah. But how do we know it's genuinely from Microsoft?
"The company has not said how much the service will cost or when it will be available in final form."

Not only will they sell you the software with the security leaks, they'll sell a service to detect the leaks, and then they'll tell you wait for the next service pack to fix the leaks, which in turn adds newer leaks, and the cycle keeps repeating. Meanwhile everything on that machine is broken because of incompatibility with that service pack.
Methinks a whiff of vaporware is in the air, perhaps they feel a little competition on the horizon?
