    What would you prefer? Avast Free Antivirus, or MS Essentials? Which would run lighter?

    I used to run Avast and MSE together. MSE always caught stuff before Avast even knew something bad was about to happen. Not sure which one is lighter.

    It's always been the opposite for me. AVAST always alerts first. MSE beats AVAST maybe 5% of the time. That's good enough to keep it there as far as I'm concerned.
