Jamie,

Just one word of warning about MSE.  When you do a full scan for the
very first time, depending on the size of the drive, and how full it
is, it can take quite a while.  Indeed I've known it take as many as 8
or more hours, but bear in mind it really is a very deep, full scan. 

Just thought I'd warn you so you can plan accordingly.

George.

Hi Jamie,

Microsoft Security Essentials is an anti virus program.

If you have Windows 7, you have a quite decent firewall (at last!).

George.

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?

Thanks,

Jamie

Hi Jamie,

Security essentials is enough on its own without defender.

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

Hi all,

Does anyone out there have a clear idea of what the
differences/overlaps are between the following pieces of security
software:

Microsoft Security Essentials
Windows Defender

Basically what I am trying to find out is, if I activate Windows
Firewall and then install Windows Defender and Microsoft Security
Essentials, will they work together without clashes and, more
importantly perhaps, what elements of PC security will not be covered
by this combination?

Any thoughts most welcome.

Jamie
