hey all, MSE is a ok product for the most part and I can say that I never was infected with a virus when I did use it. my complaint was all of the little B S issues that I had with it. the MPKSL legacy drivers it kept trying to install, also the problem that it does stop for no reason or it says that it hasn't been scanned for awhile when it did a scan the night before. etc etc. tried all the fixes and they were only temporary. I have also had the same issues with some of the other free antivirus and that is why I don't use them. as said before they are free so can't really complain, and there are so many other choices try them all find one you like and use it. common sense antivirus is still the best. the freeware just adds to it. just my opinion. poorguy
