microsoft security initiative... again??

i've heard reports like this earlier.. xp service pack 2 was gonna protect against spyware?? that didn't happen, spyware is still a significant threat and now microsoft wants to compete against enterprise security appliances. I say they are barking up the wrong tree. More code (from microsoft) does not equal more security. More code is more vantage points to elevate privileges and bypass authentication services.

Thanks again for asking what the community wanted. More exploitable/manipulatable security mechanisms.. btw.. i use linux and security consious people should start migrating before its too late.
