Is anyone aware of the release plans for MS ASpyware? I saw some postings
awhile back about the enterprise version, but have not been able to get a
date on expected release. Even my MS sales rep cant get the information. I
would also assume it would be part of an SMS solution. If anyone has
verifiable info, it would be much appreciated.
 
Yes, corporate versions of AntiSpyware Solutions are in the works

Microsoft moved a step closer to becoming a key player in the Internet
security business with the announcement Thursday of a new enterprise-class
anti-spyware product featuring technology to thwart viruses, worms and
kernel rootkits.

The new offering, dubbed Microsoft Client Protection, will go into limited
beta before year-end with a full rollout expected in 2006.

Details on pricing and licensing are being kept under wraps.

The announcement, which came during a meeting between chief executive Steve
Ballmer and business partners in Munich, Germany, is the culmination of a
year-long push by the world's largest software maker to take on entrenched
security vendors in the anti-virus/anti-spyware business.
