There seems to be a lot of anti-MS bias on here that isn't based on any

Just because it is made by Microsoft does not mean MSSE is bad. It is
very
lightweight, does not crash, and does the best job of removing malware
that
I have seen. And it is free. I never used AV until I started using it
because I was turned off by the crappy choices and I love it.
