Avast free vs Microsoft Security Essentials

['chris']

hi

What's your experience with MSE compare to Avast free?

[Diego Castelli · Accepted solution]

MSE uses the same engine of Microsoft Forefront Client Security and it's the lightest and best integrated antivirus in the free editions' world IMHO.

Always get problems with Avast and once per year you should uninstall/reinstall the new version or buy the $$ version.



HTH Bye.

PS : i use it on my personal PC at home, but if i find that the product is not good for me, i'll switch back to the ESET ( NOD )
