Security Essentials

If you have Windows and you've been struggling to keep your system running fast and clean, check out Microsoft Security Essentials.   Over the last few days, I ran a number of tools (malwarebytes, Trend Micro Internet Security, Trend House Call) on a system I knew had some nasty items on it.  All had the most recent updates, and all showed the system as clean.

Today I downloaded MS Security Essentials, updated the software, and ran a full scan.

Security Essentials found four items that were beyond just the average adware.  Seriously, you need to run this free tool from Microsoft.
