Hi, Stanley. I also briefly used MSE for a short time after I decided to ditch Avast. It had a very, intuitive user interface, but the program made me a bit queasy as it didn't seem to have any controls or options to control how often it updated its definitions. I read that MSE updates along with the Windows updates but I feel that Microsoft should have a separate update scheduler in MSE's options screen. However, I am glad that Microsoft has given us another choice for a free antimalware program which is 100% accessible.

Hi there. When I tried to use the Avast 5.0 Free Antivirus, it was inaccessible with Jaws. So I switched over to Microsoft Security Essentials and am very happy with it. It is very light on computer resources.
