MSE: Microsoft Security Essentials – 1 Week in…..
Issues with Microsoft Security Essentials:
Here are mine so far:
1) Upon Install on two of my XP machines – Both used to have MacAfee Security Suite (Fully Removed) and BLINK from Eeye (Fully Removed) Both Machines will display the XP Windows Firewall Warning Box on startup intermittently. This is the box saying you have no firewall operational. This is only on boot and only till the boot sequence catches up and then the dialog is gone and the Firewall shows good to go. I have submitted a support ticket. The Result of which is two suggestions: Add MSE to firewall exceptions (Which I had to do manually because it did not seem to add itself) and also run MS Install Cleanup Utility (which I did to look for previous security related installs and none were found) – Firewall Dialog still in intermittent.
