Well I would go for Malwarebytes as your second line of defense. The free edition doesn't provide protection, but MSSE is doing that anyway so why re-invent the wheel? Go to www.malwarebytes.org.

Hi Tom and Chris, OK, thanks for this feedback. So what I'm taking from this is that if I've got Microsoft Security Essentials, I don't need Windows Defender as well. However, do I still need anything else to be properly covered, for example, anti virus software, firewall software etc?

Have run essentials since windows live one care was about to be discontinued and no probs.

Any thoughts most welcome.
