Microsoft to offer free security software

The Business Journal of the Greater Triad Area

Microsoft Corp. said Wednesday it will offer free antivirus software for PCs.

The move by Redmond, Wash.-based Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is a threat to independent security software makers including Symantec Corp. (NASDAQ: SYMC) and McAfee Inc. (NYSE: MFE).

Microsoft said the software will be available in the second half of next year. It will replace Windows Live OneCare, which costs $49.95.
