Welcome to BC
Microsoft Security Essentials Overview is basically a stripped-down version of OneCare aimed at users who either can’t or don't want to pay for antivirus/anti-malware software.
Microsoft Security Essentials Support - (Videos for Install-Scan-Fix a threat, Help & How To, Submit a case file, Report a Threat)
Note: Before installation, MSE checks for a validated copy of Windows and will disable Windows Defender. You need to uninstall all other "Memory Resident" antivirus applications before you install Microsoft Security Essentials.
I tried it but still prefer avast as a free alternative.
