BUT! you can get it here (still legal beta):
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Antivir...sentials.shtml
Unless you got it when it was first available, you cannot obtain it from microsoft.
"Thank you for your interest in joining the Microsoft® Security Essentials Beta. We are not accepting additional participants at this time. Please check back at a later date for possible additional availability."
Its in red on that URL.
Having used this and read expert reviews, I wouldn't recommend this yet.
Its weaknesses are detecting and removing rootkits. Also, it doesn't detect or remove keyloggers well. Ok it's still in beta, so theres room for improvement.
I would recommend Norton Internet Security 2010 beta, it detects high amounts of all malware (rootkits/keyloggers/viruses/etc...) than all others. It even has the prestigious PC MAG editors rating. And guess what? It's still in beta! Just wait until it's released in September 2009. :)
