Microsoft apologized for spreading virus

Microsoft apologized to Internet users affected by the actions of malicious software, which unexpectedly turned out to be hosted on the company's websites and in the Windows Live Messenger program.

“Microsoft, which launched its new secure Windows Vista operating system with Windows Defender to protect users from viruses and spyware, looks very unexpected. They began to provide malicious software makers with the opportunity to place their paid banner ads on popular MSN servers, ” SecurityLab quoted one of the readers of Apcmag.com who reported the problem.

System Doctor 2006 is described by many resources as scam anti-spyware. To its credit, Microsoft should say that it very quickly removed the "viral advertising."
