I told you - Microsoft Security Essentials is all I've EVER had (since it's release) and I haven't had a single virus. The only additional item I have is Malwarebytes and I run that once a week on a Sunday (as I do with MSE - full scan)

That's because you aren't visiting questionable sites like those other guys. :P

^The sites aren't questionable, they're awesome!

^Unquestionably

You can send it. Good luck actually collecting on it.

I'll collect it on my own, don't worry. You'll barely feel anything.

I've collected in full. See now was that so bad?

I need a shower.

And some warm vanilla ice cream. Melty.

Just wanted to mention that we're using the AVG free version at my office and the amount of notifications it generates for upgrading and advertising related products is incredibly annoying. I just adjusted some settings to hopefully cut done on the number of pop-ups, but it has been happening several times each day and has been driving me batty.

I haven't used AVG for several years, but I don't remember it bombarding me with ads in the past.
