eMail Battles has a pretty good write-up which weeds through
the details here.

Microsoft's current offerings for anti-spyware, anti-virus and anti-hacker services is such an overlapping jumble, it 
has some of its own developers confused. What distinguishes Windows Defender, Windows Live Safety Center, Malicious 
Software Removal Tool, Windows OneCare Live, and Microsoft Client Protection from each other? Which tools work 
together? Which don't?

Email Battles sorts it all out... hopefully.
