I got a hold of the leaked build and thought i would post some first impressions. I did a full scan and it had found a trojan that was archived in a zip file. That was surprising since I've had the file for over a year and several other products never found it.

MSSE seems to be built on Windows Defender. But with added malware, spyware & antivirus definitions. It also uses MS Spynet.

Scanning time is comporable to WinDef. So far I like it a great deal. It does have the inherit problem WinDef has. Which is on shutdown, you get the user profile error that WinDef (also MSSE) has opened a registry key. This can be solved using a shutdown script to stop the service thru gpedit.

Finally, after i've got bored of Windows Live OneCare, switched to AntiVir, now I can go back to Microsoft once again - if really - it can outperform most of those famous free anti viruses.

Could this replace something like Norton?

In Brazilian Portuguese, my mother tongue, "morro" means: "mound" and also "I die"... =)
