Since when :)ĭoes it fire off that license when it installs or does it say it elsewhere?

Microsoft Security Essentials is licensed for use on home PCs and by small businesses with 10 or fewer PCs." Microsoft Security Essentials is free anti-malware software and it is strongly recommended that you download and install it. If you are not currently running anti-malware software on your computer then you may be vulnerable to spyware, viruses, and other malicious software. "Microsoft is offering Microsoft Security Essentials as an optional update to Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 users who subscribe to Microsoft Updates. The screenshot in the link references KB2267621. Perhaps the license changes when installed in that way. Very strange - I haven't seen that on any of my computers.interesting though since the license is very specific. The person who installed this did not do it through the detection process, I imagine, and just installed double.
Not playing nice with the OS is not something you want from security software. Any AV that doesn't report correctly is not something that you want on the system anyway - either incredibly unprofessional or a fake AV product. For example, someone I know installed this on 4 computers that all had McAfee on them already & it was killing their computers - so unless they have vastly improved their method of determining AV, this is a fear.ĪV has an official reporting mechanism through the OS. I have never seen their logic of determining if there is already AV installed, so that is why I am concerned. But if my work PCs didn't have an AV solution installed then we would receive this software and would be against their licensing agreement.
My guess would be they are trying to push this out there as a "Its better than nothing, so take this" approach. If you read the article it won't appear on a PC that has an Anti-virus solution installed.
