What is the total boot up time after the bios screens? I have a seemingly long display of the Welcome screen, but the total boot time is only...
You mean top left corner of the MSSE dialogue I think. Go to the 'Settings' tab and make sure that the real-time protection is turned on. Updates...
From the MS Security site: About Microsoft Security Essentials Microsoft Security Essentials provides real-time protection for your home...
In fact Broni, MSSE is anti-spyware, anti-virus, anti-malware, and anti-trojans, according to the available at MS. I am aware of the differences,...
100% so far Chas. MSSE is the quietest security tool that I have tried, it sits there using no cpu cycles normally, 2248k of memory, updates...
No Chas. I have been a bit infected by some of the anti-MS paranoia you find on these forums, so from time to time I download another cleaner,...
I can't understand why MS Security Essentials hasn't been mentioned here. It has been my sole anti-malware for more than four months now, and...

Hi Bobby, On the subject of Defender versus MSSE, you may be interested in my new post in General Security. Roger
Quite a long time ago I remember somebody asking if the MSSE protection had been tested, so maybe now this little report may be of interest to...
Stupid error on my part Ivan. Amongst three machines, various betas, and then the RC, I never got round to trying CS3 on 64 bit. Roger
