Safety Scanner vs Security Essentials. . .

I don't know for sure. But that won't stop me from speculating.

Security Essentials will block the copying of an infected file to any disk on your system.

Safety Scanner will find an infection only among your Windows system files.

Prevention beats Cure. MSE wins!

Cheers, PW.
