Security Essentials Version: 4.0.1526.0 Antimalware Client Version: 4.0.1526.0 Engine Version: 1.1.8403.0 Antivirus definition: 1.127.848.0 Antispyware definition: 1.127.848.0 Definitions Last Updated: 28/05/2012 06:42 The time is now 10:02 (29/05/2012) MSE has failed to automatically update after more than 24 hours. Have noticed this a few times now but can update manually. Would Trusteer Rapport cause this problem? It is supposed to be compatible with MSE. View this thread

Since I had no sound I download an audio driver from a Microsoft website which fixed the problem. However, after I turned the computer off, there was no audio after rebooting it the next day. Day 2 the same things happened as I updated the audio driver again and audio worked as long as the computer remained on. But after reboot it didn't ' work again. I think it was a Sigma Tel audio drive that I downloaded from your site. Then it disappears on reboot. View this thread

Slow start up with XP, can't get updates - problems related ?
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies

I am running Windows XP Professional. About a week ago, system start up became very slow, about 10 minutes or so. Once started everything runs fine and shut down takes the usual amount of time. I ran a defrag on the hard drive and a disk clean, but the slow start up has not improved. I noticed that I have not received any updates in a while even though I have automatic updates turned on. I went to the update web site and tried to check for updates and got an error 0x80070424. I then tried to run MS Fixit which said it found an error, but could not correct it. I'm not sure what to do from here, so any help would be appreciated. View this thread

Brand new computer. I have Thunderbird pinned but it just isn't on the all programs list and never was. Makes me wonder if any other programs are not listed. If they are not pinned I could quickly forget I even have them. Basically, how can I add Thunderbird to the all programs list? View the thread

I run Microsoft Security Essentials daily because no matter how often I run it, it always says my computer is potentially unprotected. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it from the Microsoft website. I also have IOBIT Advanced SystemCare Pro and IOBIT Malware Fighter v1.4. Should my computer require a daily and sometimes 2 and 3 times a day cleaning? This happens even on days when I am at work all day and the computer is not on. Could some malware be in my computer that is not being detected by any of the programs I have for protection. Also, I have run the Microsoft virus scanner and it too, says my computer is safe - so, what gives? View this thread
