| 1332408 | 2013-03-13 01:17:00 | I want to uninstall AVG and install MSEssentials-friend's laptop with Windows 8. Should I turn off the firewall before I start uninstalling or only before I install the new programme? Have just found this about Windows Defender? www.clickonf5.org Sounds a bit too good to be true really..... Thanks |

| 1332410 | 2013-03-13 01:22:00 | There is no need to turn off the windows firewall at all. If Windows 8 is like the Release Preview, MSE won't install, due to windows defender. edit - see Speedy bet me to it |

| 1332411 | 2013-03-13 01:27:00 | A lot of people who upgraded from Win7 to 8 (who had MSE installed / and they forgot to uninstall it) found that after Win8 was installed, they couldnt remove MSE. And it wasnt that easy to remove it | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
