  More updates not update after KB915597 (definition 1.95.1996.0) are available for the update.

  I now recall a few weeks trying to download windows security scanner live onecare and to halfway to the frozen screen download and ihad to remove my laptop battery, reinstall and at startup, I selected a restore point, ran my mcafee virus scanner and when nothing was found I thought that everything was ok. I guess that now it may be coming back to haunt me.

  Question:-can I do a clean install of the recovery disks that I did when I bought the computer and this will remove all nasties lurking on my computer. If so do you have any other advice for a successful installation.

  Thank you for all the advice offered.

• Windows will not install updates after "update definition for windows defender-KB915597(Definition 1.21.1279.0) 03/03/09 '"

  Since I installed the updated definition for windows defender-KB915597(Definition 1.21.1279.0) 03/03/09, I was not able to install the new updates. I don't know why, but none of the updates I have been install, or at least try, are installation and saying "Success" next to them. I've used different methods to dispose of everything, if I have any, virus and still have not seen any progress. And unfortunately, I deleted all my restore points to keep the memory on my laptop. I have too many errors, report them all, but some of the things I did to check to ensure that I have no viruses do analyses of the complete system and remove a mysterious software they gave me an alert by (using McAfee Security). Any help will be considered. Help, please! :(

  If you install the hidden recovery partition to do the cleaning, you will probably not the product key. Otherwise, use one on the sticker attached to the computer. ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft

• Windows Definder KB915597 (definition 1.141.2103.0) cancelled) error Code: 8024000

  I read that the 8024000 error means that Windows Update is unable to read a file (update manifest) that is required for installation.

  I followed the steps to solve the problem. I checked Windows Update to update KB915597 (definition 1.141.2103.0) was not available. How can I solve this problem?

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/918355

  Read the article:

  Method 1: Check the updates in Windows Defender

  To check updates in Windows Defender, follow these steps:

  1. Start Windows Defender if it is not already open. To do this, click Start, click programs, and then click Windows Defender.
  2. Search for new definitions. To do this, click find updates now.

  Method 2: Manually install the update definitions and verify Windows Update files

  Microsoft provides updates Windows Defender through Windows Update through automatic updates and using Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). In some cases, you may receive error messages because of problems with these services instead of problems with Windows Defender. To try to determine the source of the problem, first try to manually install the update definitions. If you manually install the update definitions, the problem is probably caused by a Windows Update problem.

  Step 1: Restart your computer if necessary

  Return to Windows Defender and note the error on the home page. If the error message that you received in Windows Defender contains code 0 x 80240016, restart your computer. If the error message that you received in Windows Defender does not contain 0 x 80240016, go to step 2.

  Step 2: Manually install the update definitions

  To manually install the update definitions, follow these steps:

  1. Visit the Security Portal at one of the Microsoft Web sites at the following address:
     • If you use the English version of Windows, visit the Security Portal on the Microsoft Web site at the following address:
       http://www.Microsoft.com/security/portal/ADL.aspx

       How to manually download the latest definitions for Windows Defender updates

  2. Follow the steps on the Web site to download and install updates to the appropriate definition.
  3. If you cannot install updates of definitions manually or if you still receive error messages on the definition updates in Windows Defender, some other things are happening which go beyond the scope of this article. If this is the case, you may want to ask someone you know for help, or you can contact the technical support.

     For more information about how to contact your local Microsoft subsidiary, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address.

     http://support.Microsoft.com/contactUS/

     (http://support.microsoft.com/contactUS/)

  4. If you were able to manually install the update definitions, the problem is probably caused by a Windows Update problem. Therefore, you must continue with step 3.

  Step 3: Make sure you have all the required Windows Update files

  To make sure you have all the required Windows Update files, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Windows Update Web site. To do this, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
     http://www.windowsupdate.com

     (http://www.windowsupdate.com)

• Install all updates that are recommended. If you have problems with Windows Update, some other things are produce which will require Advanced Troubleshooting.

• Update for Windows Defender KB915597 definition

  I have a laptop HP Vista 32 bit and I noticed KB915597 to stay herself sleep although I have update set to inform me and have me install myself install.  02/05 to 05/14 years, I have nineteen 19 automatic updates installed.  My question is why is happening also whenever they are installed my computer slows down considerably.

  I already told you why you all these listed KB915597 updates: they are all updated to sequential definition for Windows Defender, but these updates have nothing to do with your computer "[slow]."

  Your problem with one, two or three of the following:

  1. "remnants" of your previous install of Norton Internet Security and McAfee Security Center (the previous freebie from Comcast);

  2. your Trend Micro subscription (or trial) have expired before installing Norton Internet Security; or...

  3. a hijackware infection.

  -Online NOTE: If the freebie from Comcast Norton Security Suite (which is only "powered by Norton 360 technologies" but not a free version of Norton 360) were installed & working properly, Windows Defender would be disabled and not up to date itself!

  To solve the #1 (only), contact Norton/Comcast support via chat (http://www.norton.com/comcast_chat) or by "call 1-877-272-7149 to speak with a technician from Norton live."

  To solve the #2, #3 or #1 and #2 and #3:

• Windows defender kb915597 (definition 1.87.582.0) error code 0x800705B4 _

  TELLS ME TO MANUALLY INSTALL BUT I AM UNABLE TO FIND HOW TO DO.

  If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, McAfee, Norton, etc. installed, they have a conflict with Windows Defender, or turn it off.

  Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and it automatically disables the version of Vista in Windows Defender.

  If it's not:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off

  Turn Windows Defender on or off the information on the link above of Microsoft.

  Hope the above explains the common compatibility issues with Windows Defender and other security programs.

• problem with recent update (KB915597)

  After you install the update of recent definition for Windows Defender - KB915597 (definition 1.71.833.0), I noticed, after going online, that my toolbar Google and my ebay Toolbar where gone.  Left click of the toolbar area revealed the existence of the menu bar and the status bar.  I did not at first asscociate the problem with the update so I tried to reinstall the toolbars, but that did not work.  I then performed a system restore and restored to the period immediately prior to the update.  I rebooted, connected to the internet and viola! My toolbars were there.  And then I installed the update, connected to the internet to find that my toolbars are still missing.  System Restore my toolbars and once again were back.  Anyone else having a problem with this update?  I leave myself open does not reinstall the update?

  BTW, I'm under IE7, Windows Vista Home Basic Edition.

  Use the system again, restore and then Defender manually update on v1.71.859.0 Defs (or more) and see if the behavior persists: https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/Definitions/HowToWD.aspx

  TIP: Uninstall bars tools & reboot, then download/install the latest version of the toolbar a 1 without that you simply can not live. Several third-party toolbars have their own, very opinions on where they should be located in the IE toolbar and they most certainly can "kill" each other. Google and eBay toolbars are just two of them.

  The foregoing, Microsoft has implemented the separate discussion groups for support of Windows Defender and comments. See http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/newsgroups/default.mspx

  TIP: Access to these newsgroups using your default News Reader, not your browser.  See instructions at top of page.

• Problems after update KB915597

  Good afternoon

  I have a laptop ASUS F3F series using the Windows Vista Edition Home Premium and Service Pack 1 . Until yesterday, everything was fine, then I installed "update for Windows Defender - KB915597 (definition 1.57.619.0) definition" . A few minutes later, I tried to use his webcam, and even if I could see the lights showing that would start the webcam, I got a blue screen saying that windows had to close and then it restarted.

  I tried to use again and it happened again. Then I removed the installation of the camera, and using the ASUS cd I installed again. When I tried to use, is the same thing. This update cannot be removed.

  I have not found in internet anyone with the same problem, but I saw another guy has had some problems with the same update (http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistainstall/thread/e71f953c-4b0b-4004-86ca-60a2023a117b/), but he was not on the webcam.

  Could someone please give me a hint to solve this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  I solved it a bit.

  I restored the system to the point before the update. So I uninstalled the webcam. Then I rebooted (I tried to skip this step and it didn't work). Installed and updated the driver for the webcam again. It works now.

  But now I'm afraid to update windows again, I won't do it.

  How I regret the purchase of Windows Vista. When I bought the laptop, there were a few computers with XP and I liked Vista.
