I don't know how MS keep up with all this c*** in product names I'm sick to death of live this and live that, the average user hasn't a clue where they are changing product manes at the drop of a hat.

The one thing I do know it won't live on my system :P

Considering that you're on dial up, I don't blame you.

For those with decent bandwidth, They offer some nice and useful online apps.  :)

I can't check my hotmail in Opera anymore, have to use IE >:( :'( :o

I haven't tried with Firefox in ages, I don't like any browser but Opera.

“Morro” represents a new offering that is designed in response to market changes and consumer needs. We hear from consumers that they need core malware protection in low-bandwidth scenarios, or that will run on less powerful machines. That's why we will design “Morro” to have a smaller footprint and to use fewer computing resources.

Well... will it give a real protection? Won't this be more a promise than reality? ???
