Microsoft Security Essentials Not Available to Pirates.
Users running unlicensed or improperly licensed copies of Microsoft Windows will not be able to install the company's newly-released Security Essentials antivirus software. To install the software, users will be required to validate their copies of Windows operating systems.
Microsoft does allow users running pirated copies of Windows to download Internet Explorer 8 (IE 8), touted as the company's most secure browser yet. Microsoft also allows patches to be downloaded to pirated copies of Windows through Windows Update. There are other free anti-virus alternatives available, but the patches are available only from Microsoft.
