How to remove Windows Defender from Vista
Post by tech.yahoo.com
Want to get rid of the mostly useless Windows Defender security tool from your Vista computer? Ha! Microsoft tricked you!

Windows Live OneCare 2.5 Now in Beta
Windows Live OneCare 2.5 is now available on Microsoft Connect for folks to start testing.So what’s new with Windows Live OneCare 2.5?

I decided to ping the Windows Live OneCare team to see what we can expect with Windows Live OneCare 2.5. They tell me that the Windows Live OneCare 2.5 release is mainly what they call an "under-the-hood" release. That means that we won’t see any big new features like the great OneCare Circle introduced in 2.0.

Across from it are pictures of the same tasks in that incredibly well-kept secret of a project that we’re working on. There are post-it notes and markers next to each wall where passersby leave comments / questions.
I wonder if any hallways in Cupertino have something like that?
