I've taken Kaspersky off one of my laptops and replaced it with MSE. This is a 3-year old machine AMD64-based machine running 32-bit XP. First impressions are that it is now much quicker to boot up and smoother and faster in web usage. It also found 2 nasties that Kaspersky missed.
I suspect it's faster because it is a simpler product and doesn't have all the hooks into Outlook and HTTP traffic and everything else that Kaspersky has. Also possibly because Microsoft have the Windows source code and can integrate it much more efficiently. So it's not as 'hardcore' a product as some of the commercial AV, but I think I'd definitely choose it over any of the other free solutions. -- Alan Bourke alanpbourke (at) fastmail (dot) fm _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
