Microsoft will roll out the first beta of its anti-spyware software Thursday, Jan. 6, according to a leaked internal memo published by the Neowin Web site.
Last month, Microsoft acquired New York-based Giant Company Software and its anti-spyware technology, and immediately said it would push out a beta of its first spyware defense in January.
According to Neowin, the beta, internally dubbed "Atlanta" has been distributed within Microsoft, and will be released as either a public beta or a private, external beta Thursday. In an internal memo, Microsoft called Atlanta "new, fresh, and all good," reported Neowin.
