Hi AlistairYou should uninstall all other antivirus products before installing MSE as it is a complete antivirus solution. You can however run complementary products such as a firewall or antimalware removal tool like malwarebytes.

Hi Damon.The installation of MSE is extremely straight forward, fully accessible and pretty much self managing. You'll click through a couple of screens where the license agreement and welcome messages appear, then the program will install of its own account, then you'll be asked to reboot your machine. Only thing you need to bare in mind is that MSE only works on validated IE legal copies of Windows as it is a product only available to genuine advantage customers.All the best, Ibrahim.-----Original Message----- From: Damon RoseSent: Friday, March 09, 2012 11:15 AM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Installing Microsoft security essentials Are there any difficulties or tricks you need to keep in mind when installing MSE? In the past I've seen that some have had a few accessibility issues with some of the tickboxes. Any hints appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jackie Cairns Sent: 08 March 2012 13:59 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Installing Microsoft security essentials Hi Peter I uninstalled Nod32 once its licence ran out, then installed MSE. I wouldn't personally ever run two antivirus packages together as I believe it drains your CPU resources, and your screen reader already does that anyway. I had nothing against Nod32, but feel MSE is still lighter yet. So far, I am very pleased with it as it works nicely in the background, and doesn't seem to interfere or intrude with the running of the machine.

My subscription is about to run out and I am considering replacing it with Microsoft essentials. Should I uninstall NOD32 before installing MS essentials? Can I run them both together?
