PC users rejoice! After spending what seems like an oddly short amount of time (little more than three months) in beta, Microsoft today launched Microsoft Security Essentials.

MSE uses the same antivirus engine as the phased-out OneCare, but the new free program focuses only on malware blocking. It doesn't include a firewall, system optimizer or other security suite-type features.

Anyway, you can download it here. May the Force be with you.
