Gates: Microsoft to offer anti-spyware
C|Net | at | by Mike
Microsoft plans to offer its own anti-spyware software, Chairman Bill Gates said Friday. Gates said Microsoft will offer software to detect malicious applications and that the company will keep it up-to-date on an ongoing basis. He did not say when the software would be available or whether Microsoft would charge for it. Although progress is being made against spam and viruses, Gates said the adware and malware problem is getting worse.
