For Those of you WHO are already using MSE version 1, until now it seems a 'there is no auto update feature, so if you want to use it must download the installer size is quite small, about 7.5-9.5 MB (Depending on the Windows That Is used). Install it directly to the MSE update to version 2.
Support, Update Needs and other notes
MSE can be run on Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7, Both the operating system 32 bit or 64 bit. One thing to note That the MSE is intended for users of Windows Original (original), so for Those WHO have not used Windows Original, may have to use another Antivirus, Such as Avira or Avast.
Although the size of the installation is very small, about 7.5 MB (in Windows XP), but after the install, MSE requires antivirus definitions update for the first time. Internet connection required for automatic updates. After I try to install, automatic updates and check out, great size for the first update after install about 62 MB. Updates can also be waged manually, We just download the exe file, by selecting the 32bit version or update update 64 bit). Update size about 58 MB.
As only Avira, one of the Things I love about the MSE is not so aggravate the performance of the computer (Pls experience using version 1). Hopefully version 2 Will Remain also mild and do not aggravate your computer's performance.
