In a stroke of good will, computer software giant, Microsoft, has released a free computer security software package to all Windows operating system users. The software set, named the Microsoft Security Essentials, can be downloaded free of charge from the official Microsoft website.

The website states that the package “provides real-time protection for your home PC that guards against viruses, spyware, and other malicious software.”

The only requirement is that users must have a genuine version of Windows, which will be etsted when you try to download the software. The application will run in the background and will automatically update itself to protect against the latest viruses and malware.
