  1. Windows 7 Dunno how...

    How many times I have heard a client say, "I dunno how that happened, I had Norton". I do know that to many reading this I am singing to the choir but, just as point of interest... Today I worked on 2 computers for a client. Both had Norton; it was removed & MSE installed. Malwarebytes was...

    Windows 7 Explorer.exe "spazzing out" and other graphics glitches.

  3. Windows 7 Microsoft Security Essentials problem.

    I am currently trying to determine if MSE is having a problem that Microsoft is not addressing. If you check the Event Viewer and show a SxS error or a Microsoft Anti-malware error, it might be caused by a problem with MseSysPrep.DLL. It seems running the Scheduled Task related to Application...
  4. Windows 7 False Positive??

  8. Windows 7 Goodbye AVG!

    Hi Yesterday I uninstalled AVG. I've used it for years and not having it makes me a little nervous but I decided to go it alone with MSE. I think that I see some performance increases. Maybe I'm imagining that. I've been running both of them since MSE came out with no problems because I just...
