"Security firm Kaspersky Lab has filed a formal complaint accusing Microsoft of acting unfairly over the way it promotes its own security products. Microsoft says it is acting to keep Windows users protected.

Kaspersky previously complained to the Federal Anti-monpoly Service in its home country of Russia. That led to several changes to Microsoft's policy, including rewording a message that suggested users uninstall third-party security software and use the built-in Windows Defender instead."

I have never used Kaspersky and sure as bleep won't. Backdoors anyone? How many compromised systems in the U.S. of A. were running Kaspersky?
