Why is Microsoft so great at creating anti-virus software?

I mean, I didn't even have to pay for it, and it's catching virii left and right better than anything I've ever used.

tl;dr - Mcaffe, Norton, AVG, are you even trying?

Doesn't matter, it puts Kasp, AVG, (whatever 3rd party AV you can think of) to shame. Just didn't want to embarrass them and now you made me do it.

To be fair, if my computer is already compromised, then there are better specific AVs out there, but for a healthy computer with a semi-intelligent user, there is nothing better than microsoft's free tools.

There are others, but MS is adding detection for samples I send them within 20 minutes. That's pretty goddamn good.
