Hi Eamon,

I've used Microsoft Security Essentials for well over a year now.

I use nothing else, no spyware software and I have never had a problem.

I highly recommend security essentials.

Stuart.

Hi folks,

I’m using the paid version of AVG Anti-Virus and Firewall, which is due to 
expire in February.

I’m wondering how credible an alternative is Microsoft’s Windows Security 
Essentials?

Interestingly  enough, well known podcaster Mary Emerson  did a podcast  on 
Blind Cool Tech, looking at the Microsoft product.  In it, she said she ditched 
her paid version of AVG in favour of Microsoft’s Windows Security Essentials.  
but didn't state why.

I know the Microsoft product is free, but I don’t think that would influence me 
too much when it comes to deciding whether or not to renew my AVG subscription.

For the record, I’m using Windows XP  with Jaws 6.

All views welcome.

Regards,

Eamonn
