I don't see anything wrong with Microsoft's security suite of applications. It does a good job with respect to virus and malware detection in Windows 7. Windows Defender works very nicely with Windows XP. And the built in firewall does a nice job for both operating systems. However if you are comfortable introducing third party software then AVG works well with Window-Eyes. Symantec Anti Virus is also OK, but because it often requires a special tool to have it completely removed this worries me. It is almost like the anti virus software is behaving like a virus. The only downside with Microsoft Security Essentials is that it is not accessible if you are using Window-Eyes 7.2. Vic

I have Microsoft's but I feel that since it is free it lacks in some areas and I just want to be safe. thank you for any feedback!
