From who? That's not your answer. You were told by someone else. If
they're willing to be held accountable for their claim, where did they
publish it?

Where did Sybari's code go? Where did GeCAD's code go? Did they get mixed
together? Did one of them get tossed and just used one of them? Is it an
engine with Sybari and GeCAD code mixed together? What does "evolved" mean?

Your "definitive" answer is more cloudy than anyone guesses have been prior
or based on published articles describing the ForeFront, MSE, and OneCare
products. Your "source" gave a response that cannot be verified, has no
supporting evidence, and won't even expose themself to be held accountable
for their claim. Sorry, David, I don't buy it.

I can't tell you whom it came from specifically. All I can say is it came from a high
positioned person in Microsoft. Someone I have communicated with since just before MS
AntiSpyware became Windows Defender.

You may choose to not believe me or "buy it" but, what I relayed is a fact coming from
somone with real inside knowledge.

As for the evolution concept from the GeCAD '03 roots, I did not press my contact.
