Microsoft Security Essentials 2.0 released
Posted under: I have been using Microsoft Security Essentials since 2009 and I really cannot recommend anyone a better Anti-Virus & Spyware solution which not only is FREE but unobtrusive and along with its low CPU usage, it works like a charm.
It is also available for free for small businesses with up to 10 PCs.
New Features in 2.0
Here are all of the new features in the latest release, which make it even more of a must-download:
- Network Traffic Inspection integrates into the network system and monitors the traffic at a low level without slowing down your PC, so it can actually detect threats before they get to your PC.
- Internet Explorer Integration blocks malicious scripts before IE even starts running them—clearly a big security advantage.
- Heuristic Scanning Engine finds malware that hasn’t been previously detected by scanning for certain types of attacks. This provides even more protection than just through virus definitions.
