Download Microsoft security essentials problems
I reformatted my HD for windows svc pack 3 and tried to download Microsoft security essentials. Rec'd a msg that I need to activate my windows reinstallation, but my computer does not accept my original product key of my lable on the computer. suggestions how to proceed?
I moved your post on the forum to activate XP because this isn't a question of MSE.
The label on your PC is an OEM version of the operating system. You must use an OEM installation CD or the key will not work. If you have used this PC's drive, the key should work and you may have mistyped the key.

I just downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials. Now, I get my Firewall is not on Windows messages.
Question 1: What is Microsoft Security Essentials has a firewall? If so, then I know that I don't need the Windows Firewall.
Question 2: if not, then I have another problem. I tried to activate Windows Firewall and got a message saying that the Firewall Service cannot be turned on. Why do I get this message?
Thanks for your help.
Lynn
Microsoft Security Essentials NOT came with the firewall, you can use the Windows Firewall in your firewall. You must use the Windows Firewall.
For the error on the Windows Firewall, take a look on:

In this article, you may need to change a registry value, very careful when you do this. I suggest to backup registry before trying to solve.

Just installed Windows 7. Rid of Kaspersky and downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials. Good choice? And do I need anything else?
Kaspersky is a great AV program But for a free option, MSE is also very good. Nothing will catch 100% of things, but MSE is one of the few that do a great job!
You may download Malwarebytes and run the free version, make a weekly scan. These two together can usually keep your system very clean and safe.But do not forget also to navigate safely. Do not download random programs or open attachments that aren't expected, etc... -

Impossible to update Microsoft Security Essentials
I try to manually update Microsoft Security Essentials and it fails and says "Virus and spyware definitions: connection failed." Security Essentials could not complete the virus and spyware definitions update 08/27/2012, 14:04 because of a network connectivity or Internet problem. "I also tried to download the definitions manually in a file and installed, but there is no clear Security Essentials of the error. Windows Update will not work for updating the definitions either. I tried to disable the user account control, but that did not help. I have the "Check for the latest spyware and virus definitions before running a scheduled scan" on. I don't have any other antivirus real-time protection software. I recently had a problem with my internet connection with wireless devices. I turned off the password and then it back on to my router and that fixes the problem. Please and thanks in advance.

Why am I not able to download microsoft security essentials for my Surface RT
Downloads of microsoft security essentials, but am told that my device does not accept this app
You can install apps from the store on SurfaceRT, so any software that you are trying to download from the internet or USB does not work.
Microsoft built aspects of Security Essentials in Windows RT, so there is no need to download the software. Every day, I receive an update of the Defender through Windows Update definitions.

Anyway Panda should be uninstalled before moving to 10 then reinstalled after,
Personally, I'd skip any upgrade if you really count on a stable system in which 10 is no where near stable like 7
Most of the time victory-10 requires a facility clean, just to be in a stable way
This kind of stability will be lost soon after loading the programs...
