[IBWiFi] Virus & Malware protction - slightly off topic

 

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the recent release of the free "Microsoft
Security Essentials" (MSE)!

The latest issue of "Windows Secrets" (and other web sources) are giving
exceptional reviews on MSE. It appears that Norton, Symantic and oher fee
based program providers are scrambling to meet this new (and free)
competition.

For what it's worth, MSE installed easily. My Comodo firewall still works
fine, and I've merely turned off my imbedded Comodo AntiVirus feature.
I ran "full" scans with MSE on my internal HD, plus two external HD's and
2 USB drives. MSE found and qurantined the benign
"TrojanClicker:Win32/Yabector.A" which Comodo had been ignoring.

Cheers,
Don Blake
