Microsoft Corp. said its new computer security program can be downloaded from Internet on Tuesday.
Microsoft Security Essentials, as it is called free antivirus software, has been available in a beta test version since June.
The software is constantly updated to keep up with the latest virus threats that can steal passwords or turning PCs into spam server. Microsoft says that this program will not make computers run more slowly.
Microsoft has said it does not intend to rob the business to companies like McAfee and Symantec Corp., made popular antivirus programs with more features. Microsoft says it hopes the free software is of interest to people who still have no antivirus software.
