    Microsoft Security Essentials good?


    I am using BitDefender Total Security 2010 with a license, and its great. I also did my research on it, and it came out #1 on many site reviews/tests... so I am just wondering is Microsoft Security Essentials good enough to replace my Bitdefender Total Security 2010, or I should just stick with Bitdefender as it does a great job of protecting. I just want the best protection for my PC. Feel free to share your experiences and knowledge.

    I use MSE, and it works great.

    Is MSE good enough to replace BitDefender? In my opinion, definitely. When your license expires, switch to MSE. There is no need to pay for programs like that anymore.

    Put the $40 into some more RAM.

    well as they say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." so ideally you should stick with BitDefender Total Security 2010

    that is a subjective notion what's best for me might be mediocre for someone else...as for mse its pretty darn good but BD is a suite it offers more in terms of features

    I've used Norton and AVG in the past, and after my last reinstall, looking for something lighter, chose MSE as a few people on here recommended it, and have been more than happy with it.

    Im not really worried about money and my license, and by listening to you gurus im thinking about MSE... but its good in protection right? Or theres no point of getting it.

    It's good in protection. Hasn't let a virus through for me.

    It's also very fast and lightweight.

    I use MSE on six of my computers and have installed it on six others. Overall it gets good reviews.

    You'll never regret using MSE as your AV. Go for it.
