we can not restore what did mse remove

MSE does allow setting what action to take in "Default actions".
I believe if this is set to "Quarantine" it would allow for restoring.
I don't know for sure as I've never had anything found.
If MSE Quarantine doesn't work the way I believe it should, i would like to know that.

I use System Backup Imaging so i can restore no matter what A/V and A/M I use and what they do.

I don't like backup imaging windows,this can resote but it's so waste of time.if mse delete to quarantine,i will use it although mse get low mark on av-test

AV-TEST September 2012 Results

   Note

They switched to Windows XP SP3 for this set of tests

AV-TEST - The Independent IT-Security Institute: Jul/Aug 2012

Avast Free Antivirus 7.0 (2012), Avira Internet Security 2012, and Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 all improved, while the majority had worse scores.

Thanks for the link and info.

From what i see in test results on that site:
It looks like MSE does not have good protection against "0-day malware attacks" compared to other products.
Seems like Avast Free (or others) are a better choice.

Guys.. what should I choose? I have BitDefender Discount so.. BitDefender or MSE?

Microsoft Security Essentials or Advanced System Care 2013 hands down, especially for a Windows OS.

I'd personally go for BitDefender. It's been on the top 1 among other antivirus software for years according to TopTenReviews.com. The best alternative to it is Kaspersky as it follows BitDefender as top 2 from the list for years as well. .

I am using Kaspersky from past 3 years and it has done a pretty good job till now. I think Kaspersky and norton is the most trusted anti-virus brand in the world .
