Microsoft's Ballmer Says Security Is Top Priority

"TOKYO (Reuters) - Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer said on Monday 
security is the software giant's top priority as it seeks to allay worries 
about computer viruses while fending off calls for Asian governments to 
develop an alternative to its Windows operating system. 

"Our number one priority is investing to make our products more secure," 
Ballmer said in a speech at Tokyo's Waseda University after Microsoft agreed 
to cooperate in training students there about security for the Windows 
operating system. 

The Microsoft head is on a weeklong tour of Japan in which he will seek to 
ease concerns about the safety of its products after computer viruses 
exploited security holes and brought global Internet traffic to a crawl in 
August and September."
