Note: The opinions below are the bloggers and not mine (even if I agree with some of them ;-)) so don't kill the messenger.
Microsoft kills OneCare, replaces it with freebie ‘Morro’
Microsoft kills Windows Live OneCare and Equipt subscription services

new "free" AV product to be called Morro
 
They should... It is a dodgy product...
Too many glitches, like mistakenly quarantine and even delete Outlook and Outlook Express files... A "communications" issue with Exchange 2000 or 2003 mail servers...

Why pay for something that didnt even achieve certification several times...

Hopefully this new product will play nicer with its own siblings (Outlook & Exchange)
