does this also remove viruses?

It does not. It has a .3 micron filter. Much too large to capture viruses. I hope this helps

No, viruses are too small, you must use bleach or something similar to remove viruses. This will however remove small particles, protozoa & cysts which should (I think) make treatment tablets/drops more effective at destroying viruses.

It does't come with pre-loaded anti virus software. You'll have to purchase and install one.

It seems to filter virus however it has tremendous overhead and during definition download every 12 hours it takes over the machine and can't be put on hold. It process priority is highest so older low RAM XP machine gets totally locked up for up to 45 minutes.

yes it can use any anti-virus program you want. I am currently using Vipre with no issues.

I know that it will replace the last Trend Micro program. You may have to go your program list and delete any other anti-virus.

Anti-Virus software has always been seperate, the fact that this is made by Microsoft makes no difference. It will never come included with the OS because Microsoft would be accused of using their monopoly to force their anti-virus on users. You can argue that anti-virus should be included for free, but thats never going to happen. You can also only have one anti-virus running at a time. However this is actualy a rip off for a different reason. They are discontinuing the service in June so its a waist of money. Buy NOD32 or Kaspersky instead (I don't trust Norton and Mcafee)

yes it does, but anti virus and windows office are trial periods of 30 days. buy new instead of refurbished. had to send mine back and it was replaced, took almost 4 weeks.

I have no idea; I have never had your type of problem. I can only say that it is extremely effective in knocking out viruses.

sorry it took longer than expected to answer. I ran a virus scan and a malware scan and the system is clean. No viruses and no malware whatsoever. You're good to go!

No it should do what is necessary as in actuality its on upgrade. Only if you are using a completely different product, say AVG and now using Norton, then you would have to uninstall the AVG.

No, this one is only antivirus. You'll want one of their "Security" editions instead.

No. Microsoft is still releasing malicious software removal tools and you can still run up to date Antivirus.
