Free MS program for your computer

[Patrick Wilson]

Microsoft has a new and free (beta) service available that scans your computer for viruses and spyware, and checks your registry settings. I had it complete a full scan which took some time, other than that the program ran just fine. The program checks the registry without having to use a registry editor.

You need Windows XP Home Edition, Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000 Professional, Windows Server 2003, or Windows 2000 Server to use the scanner.

Apparently XP home edition will not work.
