Microsoft preaches togetherness for online security
Six years after scrambling to lock down Windows and having challenged security vendors on home turf with Windows Vista, Microsoft is calling for a "dialogue" over online security and privacy.

So after firing the lifeguard they realise that they can't swim. Sooooo typical.

Those who don't know UNIX are destined to recreate it, eventually!

Microsoft will be proposing another ISO standard through ECMA, this time to instantiate Windows Live OneCare as the "interoperability standard" for system security.

Either Craig or Ballmer, take your pick.
