Thanks, Russ, good to know. A full feature version of M-Bytes is only $25
per year and it appears that it can be programmed to update and run at
whatever interval you choose. Might be a good investment. I've been
running the Czech version of AVG for about ten years (heard about it first
from a German friend) and this is the first virus it's missed AFAIK. MS
Security Essentials loaded without closing Zonealarm firewall. Nothing was
said about closing it, so I assume they can both run at the same time.

Microsoft didn't develop Security Essentials all they did was buy the
company that did.
Changed the name and the user interface.
Most if not all AV programs only scan for 3 or 4 types of trojans.
That's why Malwarebytes was developed.
Run it Every Week and don't forget to up date every time you run it.
I deal with 5 to 10 computers most weeks removing Malware.
I've seen all the Popular Free and Paid AV's miss stuff that Malwarebytes
sniffs out and get
rid of.

For Windows, I use Microsoft Security Essentials these days.
It's free, and its from Microsoft, which is not necessarily a plus but
they do probably know Windows internals better than anyone else.
