I'm thinking that Microsoft only interest for all this is , because of the large dollars sign , the billions of dollars that are being made from anti-virus/spyware programs , So why wouldn't they like to get their teeth into that too , beside there is always going to be free programs out there and the power of Microsoft should change the price of the paid type version too , So I myself like the idea what Microsoft is going to do , Though I'm not that big of a fan of Microsoft ... Also I believe because of the power Microsoft has its going to make those other browser companies work harder to make their browser that much better and I think they will too ... Who knows I could be totally wrong but it sure going to get interesting in the near future ...
