Will Microsoft Control the Anti-Spyware Market?

Posted by Cliff on Tuesday January 11, 2005 @07:22AM from the profiting-from-their-own-flaws dept.

jasondubya asks: "With all the recent publicity of Microsoft's new Anti-Spyware product, I wonder if there will be any room in the market for other companies? After recent comparisons between with current market leaders showed large failings in their products, do they stand a chance against the behemoth that is Microsoft?"

Why not? They already own the spyware market. I don't have any spyware running on my Linux boxes. The only platform I have which can get infected with this rubbish is my one and only Windows machine.
