Windows Defender

by alec on November 5, 2005

Windows Defender is the new name for Microsoft AntiSpyware.  Whatever the name, this is a great little utility.  It’s been available as a free download on the Microsoft site for some time.  I installed it on all the PC’s in the house, and the incidence of spyware has dropped to pretty much zero, even with the kids downloading games all the time. 

Alec Saunders is the Vice President of Developer Relations for BlackBerry maker Research in Motion. This is his personal blog, with his personal viewpoints. Prior to this Alec was the CEO and co-founder of Calliflower — the easiest way to hold a meeting, online, on a conference call, or on the go. A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.
