Hart,

MSE performs well and you are right in saying it doesn’t use much CPU resources.

So far, the only "high" risk objects it detected seemed to be in a quaranteed section archived by my Zone Alarm. There may have been an issue that it caused (not prevented) a virus attack on my system last week .. although, I am still working that out and getting lots of new folders (about 20) that look like this: windows[][]s[][][][][]m32[][] and registry errors when rebooting. Other than that - no more annoying messages asking me if I want to be protected - geesh - just protect me!

It's a tough one to remove, but so far I received some excellent feedback on the instructions. Have you tried Safe Mode in order to remove that numerical file? Debbie,

I can't delete the 28801928 file out of the document/settings . 2. Can't run in safe mode. It blocks anything I try to even do. 3. Og course can't load my Norton Anti-visrus software at all. What can I do. My PC is being held prisoner. Thanks Debbie Wheeler Frank J.,

Help I have read all through this website with you giving advice on this blasted “Security Tools” virus.

1. I can’t delete the 28801928 file out of the document/settings .

2. Can’t run in safe mode. It blocks anything I try to even do.

3. Og course can’t load my Norton Anti-visrus software at all.

What can I do. My PC is being held prisoner.

Thanks Debbie Wheeler

Thanks. Rather impressive for Microsoft to make this kind of splash. I had heard some other good things about Microsoft's Security Essentials recently. Norton Internet Security 2010 has also gotten some good reviews with the arrival of the 2010 product. Seems like they have built on the solid revamping of the product that they did with the 2009 version. Guess it's time to give MS Security Essentials a whirl and see how it stacks up. The price is right ;-) Interesting, I hadn’t seen this report. Thanks. Rather impressive for Microsoft to make this kind of splash.
