• Disabled the HTTPS option in Hotmail and problems with the Windows Firewall, Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows updates.

  Original title: Windows Live Hotmail only opens a new window links e-mail composition!

  I recently put my Windows Live Hotmail account to my default e-mail client in Internet Explorer 8 on my Windows XP SP3 System. Unfortunately, whenever I click on a link to e-mail on a Web page to open a new message, Hotmail tells me, "Sorry, there seems to be a problem with Hotmail right now", and a new/compose message window does not open. I disabled the HTTPS option in Hotmail, which fixed the problem. However, when I went to do a manual update of Windows, I am nailed with a Trojan horse! Apparently, the Windows Firewall and Microsoft Security Essentials have been affected by turning off HTTPS in Hotmail! It's 2012, and it's terribly disappointing that Microsoft only has not ironed out all the imperfections in these services now. If anyone can give me a solution (in simple terms), I would appreciate it!

  Thank you

• Update (error code 80070103) Windows Update fails & Microsoft Security Essentials does not install (error code 0 x 80070643)

  I keep trying to update and all these errors reappear. I can't install Microsoft Security Essentials and any update of Windows. I tried to do system Recoery by pressing F11 after reboot, and it does not work either.  I'm guessing that something might be wrong with the registry or there is a virus but I am not a computer wiz. I don't have the Vista recovery disc and the original disk to restart.  is it possible to fix this?

  I paid to get it to format in November 2010... I installed a fake Windows Vista on it (32 bits but my PC on a 64-bit password) so I had to clean install it.

  I don't understand: If you paid someone to format the HARD drive and do a clean Windows, when install I YOU "installed a 32-bit Vista?"

  If your parent friend had lost the Windows CD comes with the brand new computer, the person you paid use to do the clean install of Vista 64-bit?

  I do not see KB948465 in installed updates, only KB956250 & KB256506

  I asked only KB948465. In any case, KB256506 is not an update or a section of the play.

  No, I never had any other than Microsoft Security Essentials antivirus

  Again, I don't understand. If you have never had any other antivirus MSE and MSE has been installed since November 2010, why you try to 'install Microsoft Security Essentials' now?

  Q: which, if any, of these updates ARE LISTED in updates installed (no update history)?
  A: See the number 3, I don't see anything else apart from those two

  What "number 3"? You see nothing else, in addition to the two updates to date?

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  I give up. I can't help you if you do not answer my specific questions in your very next answers!

  I think you'd better take the computer back to the repair shop & pay to figure what's wrong (yet). Good luck.

• Update Microsoft Security Essentials removed

  Original title: Microsoft Security Essentials

  I use Windows 7 and Office 2007.  Microsoft Security Essentials asked me if I wanted to update the program.  The updated program was a digital signature from Microsoft.  Everything seemed to go well and when the download is complete, it asked me to restart my computer.  After the restart, Security Essentials has completely disappeared from my computer.

  If that's the problem with Microsoft Security Essentials, then try to install it from:

  Also, check in the start menu and see if you can open it or not

  Hi DavidValentine,

  Check that you have removed all other anti-malware real-time products that were already installed on your PC, including free products / trial that were installed when the PC was purchased (Norton, McAfee, TM, AVG, OneCare, Malware bytes (paid), etc.).

  Note: If you use more than one antivirus or antispyware program at the same time, your PC may know a decrease in performance, become unstable, or restart unexpectedly. Before you install Microsoft Security Essentials, or if you want to solve problems with Microsoft Security Essentials, including the update of issues, you must first completely remove your PC Internet security programs.

• Microsoft is aware of a rogue security alert that mimics alert Microsoft Security Essentials?

  See this site for more details.

  http://Clubhouse.Microsoft.com/public/post/001648ea-976f-4cfa-A528-0e4ffe23a8ec

  I was wondering if Microsoft knows about this threat.

  If Microsoft knows about this alert, how they classify this threat? What they call it?

  I know that no anti-virus software will detect all at the same time, I only meant that Microsoft should be aware of this, because the creators of thugs try to imitate Microsoft Security Essentials alert them and attract users in the purchase of products not authorized.

  I know how to check whether or not the alert is Microsoft Security Essentials.

  When the time protection real Microsoft Security Essentials detects something, it always appears from the tray icon, it shows not directly from the alert, whereas the fake one appears directly on the center of the screen of the computer.

  Anyway, the whole point is that I don't want too many antispyware software on my computer, I prefer to use portable applications for the detection and removal, such as rescue of vipre, portable superantispyware, doctor web cureit, norman malware cleaner. I don't want to have separate antispyware software more, that drives me crazy, if I have these installed I will need to be updated regularly, they don't have no automatic updates unless if I buy the full version.

  I know that it will be easier to tell if the alert is false or not, once Microsoft Security Essentials 2.0 is installed on the computer, because Microsoft has removed the "Clean computer" button in alert details, it does appear on the alert since the icon of the status bar, while the false, they imitate the alert from MSE version 1.

  Maybe the alert doesn't really matter, the thing that matters is the threat to which the alert draws in

  Well, it seems that now, Microsoft has finally got the hang of this threat, the threat is now classified as Rogue: win32.fakepav

  Hope that Microsoft Security Essentials 2.0 coming out soon, so the user can make the distinction between the legitimate and the fake more easily alert.

  2. you receive an error message/code when using MSE?
