I just installed MSE and have been running it for a few hours now. I'm impressed with its low resource usage, and as theZoid said, the price is definitely right!

Haven't even looked at MSE, but I really would like a new AV solution. McAfee VirusScan enterprise (which I love dearly) still doesn't work correctly under x64. Keeps throwing errors in the On-Access scan log, confirmed by them to be a x64 only issue.

I use Comodo Internet Security. Still not convinced by it.

Using MSE (for about 2 months now) has caught a virus on a data stick Avira missed. Runs perfectly on my WIN 7 and old XP machines. Windows built in firewall and hard router finish off the package.

Default Re: 64 bit antivirys and firewall.
i always uaes KIS (kaspersky internet security) .. and now on win7 i run KIS2010 without problems.

It has everything (av,mail av,browser av,firewall,.............................. ) there are rly ALOT of features. if u dont need them, turn them off. It asks me for everything so i can always be sure not to miss anything happening on my laptop Sometimes annoying but secure. Also it checks when some file as changed and checks that file again if it has changed to smth bad.

I´m not sure about how much ressources it takes and how it is compared to others.

this is also nice:
