I'm running Windows 7 and had Microsoft Security Essentials installed from the start - Jan '11 ish. A couple of months ago MSE stopped working as well as refused to be installed or uninstalled due to not being able to find something related to the Microsoft
Security Client. This coincided with downloading some other software from a site that wasn't as reliable as I first thought, hence I think is the work of a virus.
I have been using AVG since then but the trial just ran out. AVG didn't find any viruses.
I have tried manually uninstalling as described in <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2435760#LetMeFixItMyselfAlways" target="_blank">
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2435760#LetMeFixItMyselfAlways</a>, but this didn't work out. In particular there were no instances of Microsoft Security Essentials in the registry, only Microsoft Security Client.
Any ideas? Thanks.
