<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">I put it on a few computers for friends and family, and it works
pretty well. It is very lightweight, and updates are tied in via Windows
Update. The interface is pretty simple, and does a good job I think in nit
unnecessarily confusing its users. I do know it has Microsoft’s Cloud scanning
technology which can help it find stuff definitions haven’t been written for by
query Microsoft Servers like the SmartScreen Filter in Internet Explorer 8</span></p>
