It was recently recommended to me by an IT spec for whom I have great respect. On the other hand, PCWorld trashed it as recently as December, saying its average capture rate was around 85%. Pay your money, take your choice.

It is not as good as some other programs, but "it misses a lot of threats" is hyperbole. If you're concerned about it, use a spyware program like MalwareBytes along with it. I also do an off-list scan with a anti-virus scanner such as Sophos on a weekly basis.

There are lots of people including Windows Secrets folks that use MSSE. It is certainly a lot more accessible and not a system resource hog as some other programs.

It's reasonably accessible. The most accessible virus protection I currently know of that is free is Microsoft Security Essentials. I'd stay away from that program as it misses a lot of threats.

Is anyone on the list using AVG?  If so, what do you think of it?
Seems like jaws friendly virus protection is getting harder to find.
