MSAS Refresh Extended to Dec 31. 2005

[Andre Da Costa]

Well here is some information about the refresh of Microsoft AntiSpywar
everyone has been waiting for:
Microsoft is slated to release to the Web in the next day or two a beta
refresh of its Microsoft AntiSpyware product.
Some testers reported Wednesday that they had downloaded a new beta version
of Microsoft AntiSpyware (version number 1.0.613). They also reported that
Microsoft has extended the beta-expiration date for the product from July
31, 2005, to Dec. 31, 2005.

Microsoft officials confirmed that Microsoft has extended the beta period
until the end of the year. Officials also acknowledged that the company has
been testing on a selective basis the beta refresh number 1.0.613. (The
current beta version number is 1.0.509.)

The pending refresh is not Beta 2, however. Microsoft executives said Beta 2
will be released "sometime later this year."

"We are going through with a refresh of the [Microsoft AntiSpyware] beta,"
said Paul Bryan, director of product management with Microsoft's security
technology and business unit. "We are testing this right now a bit, making
sure that things are OK" before releasing to all testers.

Bryan said Wednesday that Microsoft plans to make the refresh available to
all testers "in the next day or so."

I knew it all along that it would take at least a year or
longer since they talk about releasing IE7 and Window
OneCare.

another refresh, i hope the next refresh is way better.

Suspicions are that it will tightly interface with IE 7, not because it says
the expiry date is December 31, 2005, necessarily means its 2006 product,
you have betas that are RTM'ed before their expiry dates. Its great news
though and it will be coming in a few days, I am so excited.
