Are there any libraries using Microsoft Security Essentials on their<br>
staff and public computers?<br>
<br>
If so, how did you get around the licensing limiting its use to your<br>
household or home based small business?<br>

<br>
If you comply with these license terms, you have the rights below for<br>
each license you acquire.<br>
<br>
1. INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.<br>
* Use. You may install and use any number of copies of the<br>
software on your devices in your household for use by<br>
people who reside there or for use in your home-based<br>
small business.<br>
* Separation of Components. The components of the software<br>
are licensed as a single unit. You may not separate the<br>
components and install them on different devices.<br>
* Included Microsoft Programs. The software may contain<br>
other Microsoft programs. The license terms with those<br>
programs apply to your use of them.<br>
<br>
Does microsoft have a different license available for security<br>
essentials for libraries ?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance !<br>
