TrustDefender highlights danger of updated Torpig rootkit and variants
Rootkits are the not-so-secret, yet increasingly sophisticated weapon
of online criminals targeting Windows users even before their computer
boots up, with the Mebroot / Sinowal / Torpig rootkit potentially the
worst of the bunch, completely invisible to traditional AV programs –
but not to TrustDefender.

AVG sees uphill sorrow for Microsoft's Morro
Surprise, surprise: arguably the world’s premier provider of free

channel headaches and potential delays in delivering timely updates.

Is Microsoft's Morro, due mid-to-late 2009, a great ad for Linux?!
Microsoft will launch a leaner version of an Internet security package
to protect users from malware, viruses, rootkits, spyware and trojans,
but for some weird reason is waiting until the second half of 2009.
Wake up Microsoft – just make OneCare free, today!
