Aloha to all, I agree, MS security essential works very well with window eyes. I have been using it for about a year, without any problems. My tech guru, Langalist, put it through a comparison test, and he recommends it highly. I also recommend Spybot!

I wrote the email in notepad and paste it back to email and heard the email, but the only thing sent was the automatic signature. My appologies to all.

I have windows xp and she has windows 7. Is it safe to switch over to using microsoft's security essentials? Then, lastly, if we were to use firefox as well as internet explorer, would we still be protected, regardless of what internet browser we were using? Thanks.
