Now the Action Center is notifying that Security Essentials is turned off and must be manually turned on using the Security Essentials program. However, I cannot find MS Security Essentials listed in my programs. I don't understand how it would disappear since it was active prior to this. Can anyone advise?

Evening all, I've been using this WHS for several years but in the move I had to dismantle the server and now I'm faced with putting it back together. My notes are gone as to which drive went to which on-board SATA port. Any clue if WHS is going to have a stroke when I fire it back up? View this thread

I just got a phone call telling me that he was from Microsoft detected that I had a virus on my computer. Asked if I was sitting at my computer. I told him NO and that I did not believe him and hung up. Does Microsoft do such a thing? I have never heard of anyone being called by a so called Microsoft Tech. Especially one that did not speak very good English. I don't want to be scammed. View this thread

Hi, I was researching on the difference between a quick scan and a full scan and to my knowledge what I understand is that a quick scan will scan a hard drive in all areas that malware is known to store itself where a full scan will scan all areas of the hard drive, so it is recommended to just run a quick scan. My question is if today or tomorrow someone creates a virus which stores itself on the hard drive where no other malware stores itself, wouldn't a quick scan not detect it and a full scan will? So then wouldn't it be best to do a full scan ? View this thread

I bought a refurbished computer from a school auction complete with Windows Vista Business installed on it and working. After 2 months it started to give me an error msg. stating the volume had expired or something like that. Now Windows will not work and all my attempts to reactivate it have failed. The product key on the unit only gives me a a new error code 0x8007267C and tells me I need a business key to activate it. I'm using another laptop to convey this as the new one is unuseable. Any suggestions? View this thread
