hi !
MSE Realtime Protection ON=1620 kB
MSE Scanning=2852 kB
at least thatīs what taskmanager is telling me...
I find it somewhat funny that even though people build highly powerful rigs, often install too much RAM, overclock their CPU's and push performance to the max....they still worry over a few MB's here and there for something like antivirus.
hi !
thanks Airbot !
as you can see above, i thought it was a bit low...
i was using my "USER"-account, when i switched to my "ADMIN"-account, taskmanager showed some more memory being used.
2 new screenshots:
look for MsMpEng.exe
RealTimeProtection=29.016 kB
Scanning=40.332 kB
however please observe that iīm still logged in as "USER", so taskmanager shows 2 userinterfaces for MSE...
hi !
swarfega: "Why do you have 3 av programs installed? Theres no need for more than 1 and it needlessly uses up resources."
isntīthat quite obviuos ?
i have been using MSE-beta, and of course i donīt trust it, since itīs a beta....
so i decided to keep AVIRA, at least until MSE is out of beta and released.
that turned out to be a VERY good decision, i have seen some strange behaviour, MSE turning itself off several times, and then refusing to turn on, even after numerous tries...
why A2 ?
because it has some additional protection not included in MSE...
currently iīm using: MSE, AVIRA, A2, MBAM, Winpatrol, Comodoīs firewall & Defence+, and a HOSTS-file, and i normally run on a "USER"-account.
and guess what ?
i have a "CLEAN" PC...
the only thing that gets detected are false positives, thatīs because i have some A/V & firewall testsoftware in some folders.
"Theres no need for more than 1"
what planet are you from ?
