The current version of MSE? I think it's on v2.0 now. Of course, there's no substitute for careful behavior, as others have mentioned. I'm extremely cautious, and honestly can't recall a single time that my antimalware (MSE or the stuff I used before that) software has protected from a threat over the past few years.
Maybe MSE works well for me because it never has to do anything. :) John From: Micheal Espinola Jr [mailto:michealespin...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, October 07, 2011 1:20 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: AV and malware protection? I would trust Malwarebytes over a traditional a product. I wouldnt trust MSE what-so-ever. I've seen web-based drive by exploits absolutely destroy it. If I was going to couple with an AV product, I'd use Kaspersky primarily, with ESET as a secondary choice. -- Espi On Fri, Oct 7, 2011 at 6:34 AM, John Hornbuckle <john.hornbuc...@taylor.k12.fl.us<mailto:john.hornbuc...@taylor.k12.fl.us>> wrote: I just use Microsoft Security Essentials.
