Oh yeah, I forgot... On Win8, Defender is "always" running. It feels a bit strange as we've always had to do all kinds of configurating of an antivirus and now its simply built in on Win8 computers. <Smile>. To test it, simply pop in a thumb drive then go to "computer," right click (Shift F10) on the thumb drive and choose "scan" or something to that effect. At some point you should see a screen conveying scan progress. By the way, if you are already running Windows Defender, you are actually running a renamed MSE, so if you've installed MSE on top of Defender then you might end up having problems.

I use Mywarebytes pro on three pc's. I was trying to download the free version, but kept on taking me to a third party download for 'CNET' and I cancel . This is for my wife computer, so I'll try your link. I also have Windows Defender and MSE installed on it, but I always wonder if the Windows Defender actually works??? Thanks.
