Can anyone with Windows 7 give me a DL link to this?

Wanted to get this for Windows 8, since 7 and 8's desktop mode are almost the same, but Microstuff is stupid and won't let me because Windows 8 sucks. If someone running Windows 7 (Vista and XP might work too) can get me a preferably 64-bit download, that would be nice.

Actually there is a very good reason why you can't install that on Windows 8.

It's because it's already installed.

It comes by default in Windows 8 under the name "Windows Defender".

Oh stuff, I never knew that. I expected it to be in the list of programs on my custom start menu, lol.

In Windows 8 and Windows RT, Windows Defender provides the same level of protection against malware as Microsoft Security Essentials. You can't use Microsoft Security Essentials with Windows 8 or Windows RT, but you don't need to—Windows Defender is already included and ready to go.

Yeah, I saw that on the website, but I couldn't find Windows Defender and assumed it just filtered downloads or something.
