Thread starter dan2229 Start date Nov 2, 2013 Status Not open for further replies. #1 Which is better to run on my Windows 7 laptop, Microsoft Security Essentials or Free Avast? Microsoft Security Essentials says to uninstall all other virus protection or it could cause conflicts.I just got a warning that a threat existed and Avast is running a scan at the root level. It has found Sys32 Pup-Gen.Thanks,Daniel #2 Blondes or brunettes - same deal, a matter of taste. Nothing is going to protect you 100% but the real determinant is risky behavior, which trumps most security. And yes, only one security product per computer UNLESS it's something like MalwareByte's anti-malware and then you have to tell the other other anti-virus software to explicilty ignore it.Why don't you look at this an pick your anti-virus:"Living tomorrow is everyone's sorrow.Modern man's daydreams have turned into nightmares. #3 Microsoft Security Essentials or Free Avast? Yes.I run both on several Windows 7 machines and the only conflict is that Windows "Essentials" catches nothing at all but Avast pulls out several "infected" emails every week. (your email address is fair game for every 'scrote' out there if you own a couple of domain names)Spybot S&D catches any "malware" and browser hijackers that I encounter from time to time while Microft's socalled "Security Essentials" does nothing but applaud from somewhere WELL behind the goal posts.So for me, M$ 'Security' Essential is little more that the usual 'token gesture' from the usual suspect.AV-TEST Reports: MSE Vs Avastav-test.org/no_cache/en/tests/test-reports/?tx_avtestreports_pi1[report_no]=123698av-test.org/no_cache/en/tests/test-reports/?tx_avtestreports_pi1[report_no]=133160You'll have to copy and paste 'cos the [ ] breaks the forum autolinkChris.Indifference will be the downfall of mankind, but who cares?Time flies like an arrow, however, fruit flies like a banana.Webmaster Forum Thread starter #4 Thanks, I'm staying with Avast.Daniel #5 Microsoft themselves have just recently started suggesting that "Security Essentials ... merely the first.

Open the Avast Forum August 21, 2021, 7:04pm 1 My microsoft windows store has gone missing. I’ve done EVERY suggestion I could find online, but it’s not there. It’s grayed out. Troubleshooter doesn’t work, nothing works. Some said that Avast could cause it that I should turn avast off to see if it works, but I don’t know how to do that! (I have avast pro version.)Has anyone heard that avast causes this issue? The store is completely grayed out. when I go to apps, it’s not there. I’m not a techy! I’ve done wreset… no go, done the dsim, no go. Pondus August 21, 2021, 8:17pm 2 Some said that Avast could cause it that I should turn avast off to see if it works, but I don't know how to do that!If you right click avast tray icon (in lower right corner by the clock) there should be a option to pause all shields bob3160 August 22, 2021, 6:27pm 3 DavidR August 22, 2021, 8:39pm 4 Avast Pro was phased out a long time ago, are you really sure that is what you have installed ?Right click on the Avast tray icon and select About Avast that will give what avast program you have and the version/build number.That said, if this were a problem with Avast I would expect to have seen many posts relating to this in the forums, I haven’t other than this one of yours.
