So if I can get another year out of it I'd love it.Īgree MSE has a small footprint & as I said to Saga Lout the MS business model makes sense. Anyone found this solution yet? I would have thought somewhere in the security center you could have turned off a warning but I haven't been able to find anything.Īlso, I know I can move to other free AV software but I like MSE's small memory and resource footprint which is why I switched to it in the first place. Maybe on the 8th when support for XP truly ends it will go away, but I doubt it. It is strange because Microsoft agreed to allow MSE updates until 2015 so why nag us a year in advance.
I am also looking for a solution to this popup!! I wouldn't like to think that they create a market for themselves, if u know what I mean. I'm wary of other "free" AV products, the reason being that I see Microsoft have a vested interest in ensuring the continuity of the integrity of their OS's, this business model makes sense, just not sure of the business angle of these other AV vendors. Your Windows Firewall will give you enough protection and if you feel the need for stronger help on occasions, use MalwareBytes. I know it nags you when updating sometimes to buy the full version but it's still a valid product. I've been recommending and installing MSE for my customers for a long time now so I'm out of touch with the rest of the free AV market but give AVG a try.
If the intention is just to nag about XP, turn them off completely and find another AV. I think it's very petty to stop supporting MSE in XP while still allowing it in Vista and Windows 7. It may be that I don't get the popup because I have turned updates off.
