I'll tell you that there are two things I'll say here. One: you need to understand the difference between an antivirus and an antimalware program. You should uninstall Avast if you have MSE, and you can have both MSE and Malwarebytes. They perform different functions and MBAM complements MSE. Two: Stop blaming the screen reader for your problems! Every time, every stinking time something goes wrong with a computer with a screen reader installed on it, that's the offending program automatically. This attitude has to stop.

If I download a file, security essentials automatically scans the file; however, if I want a second opinion, I just right click on the file and have avast or malwarebytes scan the file again. Security essential is set to automatically do a full scan of my computer once a week, and once a month I do a full scan with either Avast or Malwarebytes as a precaution, but all three programs have found no bad guys. checkout my stand-up comedy performance--please forward or post on your social network--my goal is to reach a million clicks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75fbevlz10g On 5/7/2012 7:59 AM, shannon wrote: can you turn off one to run the other? Occasionally my computer sounds like it is gearing up for take off and when looking at the running processes it is Semantic GUI that is being a pig face. So I was wondering if MSE would do a better job or find what ever is making the GUI so hungry.

In fact, it's so complete, that I was even able to delete my spybot for blind users program, because MSE took care of the spyware good enough, so that spybot never found any more spyware.

After getting this laptop, I had a free 30 day trial of Vipre. It has now run out. I recently read a couple comments here on the List about a newer version of NOD32 not being as accessible as the older versions. I have to decide on a virus program. It is pretty much between these two.
