You can keep Trend Micro if you switch to Windows Live Mail.
If you stay with Windows Mail, switch to one of the free antivirus
programs that are compatible with Windows Mail:
AVG free edition:

or
Avast free edition:

However, with either of those, during the install phase you must select
'custom' install, and then deselect the email scanning module so it won't install.
