Microsoft Security Essentials default action is remove
« on: February 02, 2012, 10:07:30 PM »

Just wondering how many folks here realise that M$ Essentials default action for a severe threat is remove. I found out this evening when downloading my email and allowed the default action which promptly deleted my Thunderbird Inbox!! Not a huge problem on this laptop as I dont delete them from the server until they get downloaded onto my Linux desktop PC.

However in my view having a default action of REMOVE rather than QUARANTINE is not a good idea. I've now altered the actions.
