This is my current setup. I work from home and use this computer at least 8 hours/day. The computer technically belongs to my employer so I try to use portable programs whenever possible. This is true of almost all of my on-demand scanners. I use MSE because it's what my employer wants me to use...and actually I really like it. I've heard it hasn't got the best detection rates but I haven't had any problems with it and it stays out of the way. I use it on my personal PC as well.

Any suggestions?

Does not look bad, since this is a work scenario, will not suggest anything more then enabling the UAC "very important part of protection for your system".

Thanks for the suggestion. I've always seen UAC as a nuisance. Turning it off has been worth the risk for me. But after looking around at everyone's configs it looks like I'm alone in that view. I should probably go ahead and turn it back on. Thanks.

I have to agree with this.I have mine set to always notify.Its really not that bad once you get used to it but its definitely worth the small inconvenience. Thanks for sharing your Config :)
