so...is MS Defender really as bad as so many say?

Even before that one of the big companies was writing malware (Well it was basically "Kilroy was here" level stuff) and releasing it into the wild after programming detectors and eliminators into THEIR product in order to get a jump on the competition.. Now as it happens the founder of that criminal enterprise (who is no longer affiliated with the firm) is in jail for crimes.. But not that one.

Now I'm sure you'd like to know the name of the company which is NOT based in Russia.. And I'd like to give it to you.. But.. My banker suggests I not do that.. You see. I like having money in the bank and lawyers to fight the defamation lawsuit cost money.
