Will Microsoft Security Essentials still work on my system?

But I'm fine with it. Posted 09 December - PM. Daft question alert! Did you have to disable Windows Defender on your Win8 when you installed Avast? I haven't had the pleasure, nor the time, to really check out Win8, just heresay for what little I do know which is nothing.
Posted 02 February - AM. Sorry DonnaB I missed this post completely. Yes I disabled Defender to run Avast and no issues yet. In fact yesterday Avast updated 3 times for some reason but I have not had any problems with it on my Win8 partition.

Knowing from previous versions of Windows,Windows Defender gets disabled when you have another ant-virus program,after it's set to manual in services.
Microsoft says Defender is better then previous versions but i do not think it's better then most commercial ones,maybe good enough for ones who do not want to purchase a commercial one since comes with operating system.

I also boot directly to the Desktop and never even look at the Metro desktop or apps.
