Opinions about MS Security Essentials
-
If you review the latest AV-Test reviews, one of the highest-scoring A/V engines was MSE, and it was the *only* free product to be certified. It isn't necessarily the best product out there feature-wise, but as an antivirus/antimalware product either to protect a clean system or clean an infected one, it is one of the best and the price is obviously pretty good

I m using MSE's big brother. They are twins. LOL..

MSE caught a virus and a worm that were going around the school that my "paid" version did not.
The same "paid" version the school is using.
MSE integrates nicely with windows and uses little resources. Highly recommended

Which "paid" antivirus you are referring to? Just curious...

Look at his thread here: McAfee Update (8/9/10) causes win 7 Problems

McFail....McAfee
It also hosed it's own files so badly with an "update" (I use the term loosely), that even rolling back 2 days before didn't help it.
They used McAfee at the school and the virus was present for 3+ months. Just about every day, when I got home, MSE would catch the virus/worm, while McAfee told me "All is well"

Yeah I agree. Mcafee sucks, it really does.

I switched from Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 to MSE on all of my Win7 machines. I don't use limewire so that's good enough protection, lol. But seriously, I am very pleased with MSE.
True, it doesn't have a lot of features, but compared to KIS, that's a good thing.

I have been using MSE since last year and it is the best all around antivirus around. It has daily updates which is the way I like it. Norton is maybe weekly. The others I don't know. Rock solid and it catches the crap that shows up now and then.
I have used them all and MSE is the best I have seen and used over my 21 years in computers and I personally knew John McAfee when his original program was being beta tested by me. Sorry John.

+10 on MSE it's all i use and works great. I have used since early beta without a prob:)
