VIRUS- Vital Information Resources Under Seize.
If you're using Windows 8 then you don't need to purchase Anti Virus or Security Tool! Windows 8 has a built in antivirus program named Windows Defender.
Windows defender was also included with windows vista and 7. But its functions were very limited. In windows 8, defender has been redesigned like Microsoft Security Essentials. The skin and interface of New Windows Defender is just like MSE. But maybe there are significant changes in case of performance.

- You can manually select the action for each infected files. There will be options right to the infected files whether to remove, disinfect or allow them. If you're not sure about a file then leave it to the default action.
Case: Sometimes your friends may tell you- MSE or Defender can't detect few viruses like Avast, Kaspersky or Bit Defender! And you might be confused after hearing this. You may think the database of MSE or Defender is poor.
But keep in mind that MSE or Defender updates themselves twice a day. And they never detect unnecessary files unless it harms you. And they normally don't delete executable files. Rather they try to disinfect them.
