Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender works not together

I've recently switched to Microsoft Security Essentials, I it works on Windows Vista, but now Windows Defender is turned off.  If I try to 'start' Defender window freezes and it keeps just who goes back to the window where I would start from.  These two programs are not compatible?

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:

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.

See you soon.
