Do you use Windows Defender? It's actually turned on automatically and many users don't even know of its existence; while most experienced user trashed it for its low detection and such, but in fact it is proven to be effective against known spyware. On the other hand, Microsoft Security Essential is a popular free antivirus program.
The debuting of Windows 8 Consumer Preview or Beta brings in along Windows Defender. But what to surprise about is that the new Defender now also includes antivirus engine. Judging from its appearance without the name, it is even hard to differentiate between MSE and Defender. With antispyware and antivirus engine, it is said the latest Windows Defender in Windows 8 is the new rebranded Security Essential!
Downloaded a EICAR malware test file, Windows Defender quickly notifies me and the cleaning is now fully automated. There's no longer any need to click on "Clean computer"!
