This endeavor by the Internet provider is their measure to stop computer abuses from wreaking more havoc and distress. Virus writers and spyware authors are becoming more criminal in nature. I think this offer by Yahoo is an opportunity for consumers to shoot two birds with one stone. "You can use our Internet service, and we protect your machines," that's what Yahoo is thinking. For me, it's like visiting Italy and taking a
Swiss guard on your return trip.
