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.
