Roger,
Check the 'notification' area, if MSE is protecting your PC it will state
"PC status: protected". If there is a problem it will inform you that it is
"at risk".
If MSE is disabled, just click on the program and go to the 'Home' tab in
the dialog and do a quick scan. When the scan is finished, use jaws key + b
to read the dialog where it will inform you that all elements are turned on,
or off, as the case may be.
Cheers.
John.

Today I had cause to contact the help desk of Virgin as I had a problem with
my internet connection. He remotely entered my system and at one point I
think because he was not finding the solution immediately he stated my
Security Essentials was disabled. Is there anyway I can check if he is
correct or whether it was a cry of desperation from him?

Hi.
If you’ve installed Security Essentials then Windows Defender is
automatically disabled as SE contains all the features of Defender plus
Virus detection and removal. I would however continue to use Malware bytes
as this has a more robust engine for removing malware and spyware and is
updated more regularly, sometimes as often as 3 or 4 times in a day.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi, i've just installed microsoft essentials to see if it's any better than
AVG.
but I have Malwarebytes anti malware running as well as microsoft's windows
defender, is that overkill, and should I uninstall one or both?
And in your oppinion, is microsoft essentials better or worse than AVG?
