Microsoft launches free security


Microsoft has released its free computer security package to the public.
From 1700 BST on 29 September, Windows users will be able to download the software from Microsoft's Security Essentials website.
The free software gives basic protection against viruses, trojans, rootkits, and spyware.
The Essentials software is Microsoft's second try at making an own-brand security package.
Prior to release, a beta version of Microsoft's Security Essentials (MSE) software, codenamed Morro, has been available to users in the US, China, Brazil, and Israel.
