Microsoft Morro was known to be the very first antivirus software that is powered by Microsoft and is absolutely free to use. Microsoft had a whole lot of expectations from this antivirus software, but it seems that all the expectations went down when Morro was listed in the worst 10 antivirus software. Most people blame Microsoft for that, as they say that Microsoft didn’t focus much on Morro, and that is one of the reasons why it suffered huge set back.
What Morro was Designed For?
This antivirus software was designed for User PC, specifically Microsoft Windows Operating System, so that a person can get an ultimate protection against viruses, Trojan horses, Malwares and other Malicious programs. In beginning the news of this antivirus software has literally spread fear in the eyes of giant antivirus software tycoons including AVAST, McAfee and other software, as if this antivirus software program was effective enough than it would surely take over the antivirus software market, but guess what it didn’t happened. We all know Microsoft doesn’t have a good record when it comes to maintaining a program, as when Skype was bought by Microsoft, it suffered a huge down time in the entire world before getting stabilized and same thing happened with Morro, although it was their in-house product.
What Most People Believe Morro Was?
At first Morro was considered to be the least version of Live One Care, which is known to be an antivirus company that was launched many years back, and it was also known to be the one that was included in the worst Antivirus software list. The beta version and full version of Morro were known to be the worst ones, and that is one of the reasons why it wasn’t able to do any good in this field, however it can still be downloaded way much easily from numerous places.
Competition with Other Antivirus Software:
At first it was thought that Morro is surely going to give tough time to antivirus software companies like MacAfee, but after it was fully launched, it didn’t had any competition against other giants, as it was neither feature nor it was able to compete against the other giants of antivirus software industry. At first it surely bought fears in its competitors eyes, and even it cost them a significant drop in their shares too (Up to 9%), but it was still not able to do any good. However McAfee also said that Live OneCare of Microsoft was only able to capture up to 2% of the entire antivirus software market, before it was rejected by common people due to its inefficiency and same thing is going to happen with Morro too, and they were surely right, as something like that happened with Morro too!
After the failure of two antivirus software’s introduced by Microsoft, it should understand that this antivirus software market is really not for Microsoft, as they won’t be able to do any good, if they are planning to develop and launch antivirus software from scratches. It will surely be a good idea for Microsoft to acquire any antivirus software company, so that they would start working with an already established name.
