I ran Security Essentials for a few months until I got real virus protection...it'll protect against anything known, but has no hueristics, so it's not any good against new things.

If you are using the internet safely, and aren't using your systems inappropriately (thus, probably wouldn't get a virus anyway), then it's probably sufficient.  But if you want to protect against the accidental click or getting files from shady sources, get NOD32.  It's relatively cheap and well worth it.

Is Microsoft Security Essentials adequate protection for small office systems
behind a dd-wrt router?
