Microsoft has released a new version of its free security suite "Microsoft Security Essentials".
When MSE was released to public, the version number was "1.0.1407.00". Today we got a notification from MSE that a new version is available. We installed it and now the version number is "1.0.1500.0".
The most noticeable change is the new program window icon and system tray icon.
If you are using Microsoft Security Essentials, its time to upgrade your version.

Hi Guys,
I thought I would come back and verify for all the users wondering whats up with build 2140..
The 2140 build is the Pre-Beta leak of Morro.. Obtained via a torrent.. Although its a higher build the engines are now out of date.. You will want to uninstall the torrented version and install the original beta 1407.. Then upgrade to 1500 via Windows Update.. My post on the first page outlines all of this in detail..

Oh, does anyone know what I will do to obtain the original BETA? I don't know that I'm using a different version.
