I'm updating my windows defender and I installed mse or norton, but is not install what is the reason behined it
When I update windows at this point that I uninstall norton and after uninstalling it I updated windows defender and after one day, when I want to install microsoft security essential, then it installs but it is not updatable. I want the reason
If you install MSE, norton or any other program that provides a real-time protection, windows Defender must be turned off.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off
The reason is that you want only one program installed and active on your system that offers protection in real time as two or more can cause conflicts and slowing down your system.
Say for examle you picked up a well known spyware, and you had both windows defender and MSE running, they would both try and catch it and this would lead to a variety of problems.
The best would be to install a good antivirus software and turn off and ignore the windows Defender
* Note that the same streets of wanting 1 also applies to firewalls. If you choose to intall norton, and the version you install has its own firewall you want to disable the windows firewall.

Windows Security Center gives me a "alert" that my anti-virus is disabled. I have Win XP Professtional and'm running Windows defender and Microsoft Security Essentials times which I recently uninstalled, restarted the computer and reinstalled more updated. I read related security problems, but I have not found a match. I have a screenshot of the Win Security Center Alert, but unable to attach. It is said: ' Windows found multiple antivirus programs on this computer, but they all report that they could be updated or disabled. " Click on the recommendations for suggested actions... [what I did without success, i.e. update. «[I uninstalled, stop, rebooted and reinstalled and updated]»
When I shoot to the top of MSE it says, "protection is enabled, and updated definitions.
Windows Defender said: "Nothing detected" and "computer running normally."
Before the uninstall and update, I ran System Mechanic from Iolo, who has done wonders for speed.

When it comes to antivirus software, you want one and only one installed and running on your computer. Two or more may come into conflict with eachother and degrade performance. I advise you to uninstall Windows defender and use soley mse.
also I strongly suggest that you avoid using "PC optimization" tools. They can help a little, but they often do more harm than good.

Original title: I can't install iTunes 10.7 to Windows 7, 64-bit
I tried to install iTunes 10.7 on my computer, but it stops when the installation says: calculation of space requirements. Then he said only: "roll back the action", "installation failed." I don't know what is happening because I have more than 40 GB of free space on my hard drive. I also tried with an older version of iTunes, but it keeps doing the same thing.
You can not install itunes while another update that uses the microsoft windows (MSI) Setup program is running.
what you need to do is:
update of windows OS and restart.
install itunes to a partition with at least 250 MB of free space.from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

original title: WHY Windows Update keep up to date USELESS of Windows Defender and installation USELESS malware remover?
I'm a computer technician who makes a TON of virus remove money from Windows computers. Two-thirds of my tasks of repair involving the elimination of viruses from Windows and trying to fix the Internet Explorer, the worst browser known to humanity.
I have a question about Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool. These are two programs entirely worthless, evidenced by the fact that computers with them installed still get infected of all viruses, Trojan and rootkit out there. Clearly, if these two programs of malware Microsoft has done anything to protect your computer, it would have been without having to release still a THIRD tool antivirus, "security essentials" for Microsoft. I'm not complaining — the way Microsoft Windows absorbs malware like a sponge, put a lot of money in my bank account. Please keep doing what you're doing... however...
My question is, given that Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool doing nothing to protect against malware, why Windows Update keep harassing upgrade us on a regular basis?
Windows defender is not an antivirus program, it is designed to protect against spyware.
If you don't like them, so do not use them.

800106ba Windows Defender and Windows Update error, error
Hi all
Time please bear with me, long post coming.
Running Windows 7, the Ed House, 32-bit.
Problems with Windows Update, which I believe is due to problems with Windows Defender. Can not fix Windows Defender, Windows Update problem is also insoluble.
I think THAT my problem started when I installed the latest version of Spybot Search and Destroy 2. I was not like this version was not like spybot search stand alone and destroy 1 and was actually a full antivirus/malware program. I then started getting errors using Windows Action Center, saying that the windows Defender has been disabled. No biggy, SS & D worked I was not at risk.
FastForward a while and my updates are is more to come through via windows update. I begin to study and perform error is with windows defender. I find that no matter how I disable SS & D through services, etc., I can't have windows Defender to start, I get the error: 800106ba. I would like to manually disable the relevant services for ss & d and then manually start Windows Defender, this would result in just a few attempts to start the service, but it would eventually stop (after a few seconds).
Add to that with my Windows updates do not come through and just not being able to check updates (I get error of ' services does not "). (Even when I had started manually bits and wuauserv services). After a bit of digging, it seems that you need to update/run your Defender before Windows updates will begin to launch new.
I've manually updated my Windows Defender definitions today and always without result. Same old error codes and the same old mistakes. I have removed SS & D of my machine and had to install a new antivirus for enterprise network, and this has not solved all the problems (even if I manually disable this service too).
What are my options? I don't seem to have much luck with troubleshooting I found online (running the dll fresh cmds etc.)
Please help me, it's driving me crazy!

Hi Shalini,
Thanks for your response!
I uninstalled SS & D and still have the issue. After a little more digging I realize that my question was a new hard drive, I installed.
There is no error code for windows update, it just says "Windows update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running." You may have to restart your computer. The services are running, and it does not help.
I cloned my old HDD with a SSD drive. It has Advanced Format, which seems to have been a problem for other people. I tried to install the fix here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982018 but get an error code during the installation: 0xc8000247

Hello.
The problem I've been is that I lose my network connection to my wireless network when windows downloads and installs the latest update of Windows Defender (definition 1.55.1119.0).
It can detect the network and others nearby, but cannot and does not connect to my network.
The only way I can solve the problem is to do a system restore to an hour before the update was installed and disable automatic updates.I have a HP Pavilion dv9000 running Windows Vista Home Premium.
Thanks for any help.
HELLO MICK. J
Did you check the setting on you, defender of the window or the firewall settings? These things will be pervent you to connect some time. I suggest that you try disabling Windows Defender and try to connect to the internet. Useful to try link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918355

Whenever I invoke the turn on now, he fails to get the updates (if the Defender is out of date) or it's up-to-date (because I've updated through the Defender on the interface). Regarding anti-virus, Security Center reports that Kaspersky PURE (obviously running not far from the clock on the toolbar) is / was not found. You can see in the screenshot below. Please note that Kaspersky PURE runs (lower right corner of the image) despite Security Center claiming otherwise.
Is there something wrong with the part of my Vista operating system or what? How I solved this 'blindness' of the Security Center? Thank you.
According to this link, you should not use Kaspersky Pure and Windows Defender on the same computer: http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208281579
Try disabling Windows Defender and restart the computer.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off
If the "Security Center" does not always recognize Kaspersky, suggest contact Kaspersky Support or ask for help in the Forum Vista:

use Windows Defender and Trend Titanium Maximum Security
Is this a conflict if I use Titanium Maximum Security and Windows Defender?
You should never have more than one security product installed on the PC, providing active protection / scan. This can cause performance problems, system instability and conflicts between programs and can affect all installed antivirus product efficiency.
Windows Defender allows analyses in real time and cannot be used with AVG, McAfee, MSE or Norton.
Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials
I use no trend but you could search the Forums to Support trend about your question: http://community.trendmicro.com/t5/Home-and-Home-Office-Forum/bd-p/homeoffice
If it was my computer I would disable Windows Defender (if you use Vista or Win 7) and if you use XP, I would uninstall Windows Defender to be sure, there was no conflict.
I hope this helps...

My computer turns off during an update to windows xp and now windows xp will not load.
My computer turns off during an update to windows xp and now windows xp will not load. It gives me the option of last known good configuration and safe mode startup and normal startup, but it just goes back to the loading screen then flashes a blue error screen then back to display boot options. I don't have a recovery disc as the laptop does not have a CD-ROM drive or a floppy drive. I have the product key, but I don't know where or how repair the operating system.
Contact the manufacturer of your laptop as there must be a way to restore the computer. There may be a hidden restore partition.
