Microsoft has announced that, as of July 15, all security solutions for XP users will stop receiving updates, leaving users exposed to threats.
Windows XP will no longer provide the Malicious Software Removal Tool or updates to Microsoft Security Essentials.
“Since real-time protection products have limited effectiveness on PCs that do not have the latest security updates, your PC will still be at risk of infection,” the company says. “We strongly recommend that you complete your migration to a supported operating system as soon as possible so that you can receive regular security updates to help protect your computer from malicious attacks.”
