Man, is there any small part of the software world Microsoft won't invade?

Probably not, although I don't see why they shouldn't. Technologies/needs change, better to tap into many segments, rather than get caught with their pants down. As long as they don't charge for this software (it's detecting holes in their own software), it's all good, IMO.

They won't charge you to test it for them, but eventually you'll have to pay.Microsoft Readies 'A1' Security Subscription Service (http://www.microsoft-watch.com/article2/0,1995,1747847,00.asp)
