Should Microsoft push MSE through Windows Update?

Just ahead of the launch of Windows 7 comes Microsoft Security Essentials, their new free anti-virus package based on their award-winning ForeFront corporate security scanning engine.
I wrote last night that this software is being released today and there was an interesting comment from Yatti420 who wrote…
MS should just push MSE to all users.. I notice lots of clients comps coming in now with stuff AVG misses.. MSE is a Microsoft Product that just works well..

No, they shouldn't. But we all know they probably will.

I don't think they should push it through Windows Update although they could put upgrades and such there if a computer has the program installed.

......Users still retain the right of choice to install or decline Windows updates.

However, motives will be questioned if the Malicious Software Removal Tool disappears from the raft of updates, historically released on the second Tuesday of each month.
