Microsoft: You're Safe With Us

We are the space robots, we are here to protect you. We are here to protect you from the terrible secret of space

Microsoft is rolling out a test version of an all-in-one subscription service that aims to protect computer users from viruses and spyware and give them tools to make machines speedier.

Microsoft is distributing Windows OneCare to its 60,000 employees this week. It plans to run a larger, invitation-only test this summer, then launch a full-scale trial by year's end.

Among its features, Windows OneCare would offer two-way firewall protection and perform maintenance work like cleaning up disks, repairing files and defragmenting hard drives so that bits of data aren't inefficiently spread out.

Microsoft risks alienating security vendors in releasing its own, competing products, but if it doesn't do more to stem internet attacks, it also risks further alienating customers unhappy with the multitude of threats already facing its ubiquitous software.
