IS versions are no better at protection reckless users, I know because I have customers that have bought just about all security suites from different vendors and still came back highly infected. They were just wasting their money and still getting infections.
I've been using MSE for the last 5 years almost, since ive started using it ive got 1 or 2 infection, and not 1 pc the whole family, friends 20 pc's, yes it's doing a great job. lately i can feel that ms product are not the same, even WD offline couldn't clean zero day malware when the OS was infected with more then 1 malware, avast rescue cd did.MSE is useless?? nah...I simply disagree with that
MSE is a good Av, yes it's detection is poor among the others, but keep in mind..MSE is one of the lowest false positive AV out there, according to my experience MSE never gave me any false positive result like the other AV does.
"Essential" which means it's really protect the essential thing on your windows, so if a user use it for dodging/catching PUP/PUM/Ad-ware you would likely to be disappointed, but when MSE is used for "protecting your essential OS" then yes it's does the job very well done.
Also...I heard MSE only catch "Live Malware" not some kind of small/potential annoying software, to be honest I don't really understand what is "Live Malware" means..but I guess what "live malware" means is some kind of very dangerous malware that can seriously damage your OS/computer.
So for anyone that want an AV that can give user various result or detecting many things, it's obvious MSE isn't a good choice, but for anyone that don't really understand about computer, or for anyone that want keep things simple,free and protecting the "essential", then MSE is a good choice
Based on what commercial AV tests that are sponsored by the vendors in question?? As you can see many users are protected by MSE and it does its job. MSE is only useless if the users can not control their mouse clicks and downloading habits. Oh I almost forgot to say that applies to all security products as well. You can give someone instructions on how to ride a bike, you can even let them watch you ride it, but the bike is still useless to them until they learn how to ride it for themselves.

i sure hope they won't
There is no way Microsoft is going to kill off MSE when it still holds the largest AV Market Shares- http://www.opswat.com/about/media/reports/antivirus-january-2014
They listed malwarebytes on there, but it isn't a antivirus....There is no way Microsoft is going to kill off MSE when it still holds the largest AV Market Shares- http://www.opswat.com/about/media/reports/antivirus-january-2014
MSE is the most popular AV to date to hold more than 15% of AV market Shares World Wide. The only other AV that has come close is Avast.
Enjoy!!
Technically speaking none of those products are Anti-virus, since viruses no longer target home users, the majority of malware today is composed of mostly Trojans and MBAM does an excellent job detecting and removing most. So I believe they did right by including MBAM.
well they already did.it depend how you look at it, MSE now is kind of built in win 8 as WD with improvement, it is acting the same as WD in win 7 adding the same engine as MSE, so its kind of WD more then MSE.There is no way Microsoft is going to kill off MSE when it still holds the largest AV Market Shares- http://www.opswat.com/about/media/reports/antivirus-january-2014

What I noticed is every AV or Suite that "sucks" in your tests should be scrapped. Meanwhile your G-Data scores 60% on a zero-day test (haven't a link or source), but you defend it.

yes you're right Acme, nowadays we are not rely just on that AV test, you should test by yourself and ask,help
I hadn't realize I was veering off topic. MSE isn't even an option on the old XP,
Windows XP never dies..... Speaking of XP I still have one.... I've had it since XP came out.... not used it in about a year...I use Private Firewall (still) on my semi-retired XP system, and am very pleased with it's performance.
