Windows Live is the collective brand name for a set of services and software products from Microsoft. A majority of these services are Web applications, accessible from a browser, but there are also applications that need to be installed. There are three ways in which Windows Live services are offered: Windows Live Essentials applications, web services, and mobile services.
Windows Live Essentials (previously Windows Live Installer) is a suite of freeware applications by Microsoft which aims to offer integrated and bundled e-mail, instant messaging, photo-sharing, blog publishing, security services and other Windows Live entities. Windows Live Essentials will be integrated with Windows 7 (but not "bundled" with Windows 7) and available to be downloaded from Windows Live Downloads. Windows Live Essentials is where Windows Live Movie Maker at.
