Here's a summary of Microsoft's explanation of the changes that will be made in Windows Vista. Microsoft says the changes will apply worldwide.
* The search function in Internet Explorer 7 in Windows Vista won't automatically use Microsoft's Windows Live search engine ...
* Windows Security Center, a central console for monitoring the computer's security protections, will defer in cases where users have installed alternative programs from independent security vendors with similar consoles ...
* Microsoft said it will offer interfaces to give independent security vendors access to the technical core of the Windows Vista operating system, known as the kernel, while still protecting the kernel in other ways ...
* Microsoft will submit its new XPS document format to an international standards organization and change the terms under which it licenses the format to other software developers.
