The new version of Microsoft Security Essentials is coming down via updates. Those of you who have been using it, if you haven't seen the prompt, open up MSE, click on the Help drop down menu in the upper right, check for updates.

I give them a lot of credit for offering a such a great "free" application for their users.

This is what's best about the October release:
1.INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.

a.Home Use. If you are a home user, then you may install and use any number of copies of the software on your personal devices for use by people who reside in your household. As a home user, you may not use the software in any commercial, non-profit, or revenue generating business activities.

b.Small Business. If you operate a small business, then you may install and use the software on up to ten (10) devices in your business.
No one has any right to force data on you
and command you to believe it or else.
If it is not true for you, it isn't true.
