According to recent comparison tests among leading anti-virus programs, MSE 
outscored AVG and Avast at malware detection, and it is totally JAWS accessible.

  You have stated that it is the new standard in "free" accessibility. does it 
compare with the paid AVG? thanks.

    Microsoft Security Essentials is the new standard in free accessible 
real-time anti-virus programs.  It has a smaller footprint than either Avast or 
AVG, and is not a resource hog.

      Recently people on this list have discussed false posatives with Jaws and 
Avast.

      I suspect that Avast has made updates since then.  Have these updates 
repaired the problem?

      If so do you all think that Avast is still a good antivirus program to 
use with Jaws? 
      To put the question another way, does Avast have a smaller footprint and 
take up less resources than AVG?

      Thanks, for any ideas you may have.

      Peter
