All very good points from reedshaft. MSFT has ramped up education and spent considerable time and money beginning shortly after the launch of XP toward security; and there are some neat security features coming in Win 7 including Bitlocker to go Encryption.

For anyone running Win 7 which probably means anyone here, I've found Avira free to do a great job as an antivirus at this point in time in running in the background with little CPU demand.

Thanks Chugworth for the Sigcheck tool and switches.

Mark Russinovich and his collegue were great additions at MSFT.

To MSFT's credit, there will always be pandemic, intense curiosity about the latest build of Windows or when the Office teams are building new sets of tools.

Gadgets are morphing so rapidly that they have become a central cultural fixture for work or play, along with the software that runs them, and a growing number of people are curious to see what tools and integration abilities new software like Office will bring.

Catching up on a number of comments:

@hklm

I approve pretty much everything that shows up, just takes a bit as there is a lot of non sense posted that is just completely off topic. I will be faster in the future though. Very fair point.

There are a number of comments about having proper malware protection installed, blocking viruses, etc. While it's certainly true that this will block the vast majority of attacks there are a number of reasons this is still a concern for us:

1. You can't pick everything up and not everyone is always running the most up to date malware software (particularly when less technical users get these downloads). We want to keep users safe and realize that not everyone out there is aware of the options to keep themselves safe.

2. We know, per the link provided above, that this isn't the first time leaked builds have been used as a malware vector. The sophistication of attackers is often quite high and when they know a vector is successful, they are likely to use it again (and with the new things they want to try).

3. I love that people are chiming in here with how to stay secure. It's great advice and something that I think the community should provide at this stage. Look the build leaked and we can't stop that now, so it's good to have folks like all of you helping out people getting it. We release Technical Previews at the stages we do largely because of resourcing. We want to be able to respond to your issues and so we weight time we need to spend just building the product versus time we can take to address customer points when the product is at a state worthy of testing.

It also looks like there are some general questions on release date, resources like Tips and Tricks, etc. Just want to remind folks that the tech preview out there is a build not supported by MSFT. Come July you will see us take a very similar approach to Windows and the content will start to hit.

In the meantime, it looks like there is an appetite for more talk on the security front so I think we will probably throw up some more detailed information on that issue in just a bit. @koawmfot, i will make sure we cover specfics in the post. no fearmongering, just giving folks the heads up that it is there.

how about some info on what viruses/malware is embedded in these torrents and how to identify them? sounds like a bit of fearmongering to keep people from using the bits.

If you have AV that's competent, you would pick up the malware. That's the whole point of having AV protection.

References and tips on Using Office 2010 are few and far between in contrast to using Windows 7 t at this point in time.
