Windows Defender Beta 2 Released
Nate Mook writes on BetaNews:
Microsoft late Monday released the long awaited second beta of Windows Defender, formerly known as Windows AntiSpyware. Beta 2 incorporates a redesigned user interface and new threat level system for informing users of malware. Microsoft says the release is less intrusive and easier to use.
Windows Defender was officially named in November, and was designed to emphasize the product wasn't just about spyware. The tool came from Microsoft's acquisition of GIANT Software. The Redmond company has bulked up Defender with its "Strider" rootkit detection engine and is integrating the technology directly into Windows Vista - much to the ire of some partners.
