Security vendors irate with Microsoft
Just when you thought that Microsoft was going to play nice in the security tool sandbox, the vendor has thrown down its shovel and pail and walked away from former pals Symantec and McAfee. The two security developers were jumping for joy last week, after learning that Microsoft would meet with third-party vendors to talk about Vista integration and to offer up access to the upcoming system. But that didn't happen. It seems that all that nice talk was "hollow," says McAfee, which claims that Microsoft is staying true to its intention to "wall off" the kernel in the 64-bit version of Vista. Microsoft denies the charges.
