Symantec keeps communicating more than it has in past years. After mumbling about the security of Mac OSX, they now claim that Vista might be less secure than XP! Of course, Microsoft says the opposite…
Symantec engineers have analyzed the last beta released and argue there are security threats due to the complete rewriting of some parts of Vista code.
With time Vista might become more secure than XP, but users will have to wait for security fixes that will come weeks after the initial release. Vista is expected to be available for Q1 2007.
We can also find a better explanation of Symantec's claims regarding Vista: Microsoft has released its own anti-virus solution, becoming a competitor for Symantec, after years of collaboration.
