Microsoft Security Essentials

I have been running Microsoft Security Essentials on my Windows 7 RC image for over a month now.  Microsoft provides this software at no cost and it provides real-time protection for your pc that guards against viruses, spyware, and other malicious software.  Is it working?  I don't know as it has not identified anything....but then again, I would not expect it to based on the sites I normally visit.

Prior to running Microsoft Security Essentials, I was using AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition.  Other free alternatives include Avira AntiVir Personal - Free Antivirus and Avast Home Edition - Free Antivirus.
