Stop Paying for Windows Security; Microsoft's Security Tools Are Good Enough - Security - Lifehacker

via lifehacker.com
Installing tonight and replacing AVG Free (which replaced Avast, which replaced McAfee, which replaced Norton, whew). I hate antivirus and malware prevention software but since moving off the Mac last year, it has become a way of life on my netbook. So far, this new tool from Microsoft seems like a worthy replacement to all the other tools I have tried including OneCare, which was a horrible system resource hog. Will report back on success/failure in the next couple of days.
