Starting July 1, developers of adware for Windows will have to contend with new Microsoft-imposed rules aimed at making it easier for people to stop bothersome ads. In announcing the changes, Microsoft warned developers that ignoring the rules would lead to their programs being detected as adware and "immediately removed from the user's machine." The enforcers would be the security products Microsoft ships with Windows, such as Security Essentials and Windows Defender.
