  Before you have installed the Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE), which was the security program that you were using? 
  The names of please.

  More important still, you did it sure previous safety program was completely uninstalled ?

  If you have Norton or McAfee before installing MSE, I suggest that run you the removal tool to remove completely all the components of the former security program.

  For Norton Remval Tool, use this download;

  After you have configured the security to explore 9 beta essintials program says that somethings not allowing this procedure which would cause this im running windows 7 home premiumEmail removed privacy

  My personal opinion...
  Any Beta program is expected to have bugs. That is why the label "beta".
  If you are a computer user accomplished and ready to test a beta program, continue to do.
  If you are just a normal daily computer user, you can stick to IE8 at the moment until the SP is set to release 'officially' the product to the general public.

  For your information only, you can uninstall IE9. The system automatically returns itself back to IE8.
  To uninstall IE9: go to programs and features > left column, install the update > scroll to find Windows Internet Explrer 9 > right click > uninstall.
  Realizing that you use Win7. The above procedure should work for Win7 machine.

• If running Microsoft Security Essentials do I need run Windows Defender? Is the reason why I can't start the Defender-Essentials?

  I use Microsoft Security Essentials on Vista x 32.  Security Center tells me to start Windows Defender.  I click to start, but he tells me that I have to restart my computer or manually start Defender myself.  I go to services, and it does not advocate.  It basically tells me that my system has no need currently the program or there is another reason, it does not start.  Responses tells me that for the error code of course, I met error 0x800106ba later Code it tells me to try to start it manually if it doesn't work I have uninstall Defender and need to reinstall it.  Yet when I go to uninstall programs, Defender is not listed.  I tried to install it again because it is not listed, I thought I could.  When I went to install it, it-error telling me that I have already as it came pre-installed with Vista.

  Now, my question.  Do I really need Defender since I use Microsoft Security Essentials?  Is in fact an older version almost essential?  Why it tells me to start it if it is not needed? And if necessary, why it won't start

• Firefox opens, running Microsoft Security Essentials & Malwarebytes, nothing coming.

  I have 18 installed Firefox. This is the third time that Firefox has stopped opening.

  I ran Malwarebytes and Microsoft Security Essentials all three times and each time found any problems. The only thing that worked was (using Revo Uninstaller) uninstalling and reinstalling.

  It has worked well for three weeks and stopped opening again last night.

  Oh, and attempt to use the mozilla help screens in Internet Explorer is a nightmare...

  And I tried to use the troubleshooter below, IE won't let either.

  One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

  Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

  See:

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/server+not+found
  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/firewalls

  Try to start the computer in safe mode Windows with network support (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if that helps.

  ===================================================

  Here's what I use and recommend:

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw
  at home. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx also proved very reliable and
  compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields isn't necessary except leave Standard, Web and network
  running.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the LEFT of the + at the bottom right)
  Internet Explorer)

  Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not (except files, Web, network, & behavior)
  -double click the Orange in the Notification area - real-time shields - click on the shield that you want
  stop-STOP. Stop the Orange icon to display an indicator of error - click on the Orange icon-
  Right click - settings - high status bar - uncheck shields you disabled - click OK
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

  Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web, and
  Operation of the network. (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - cancel)
  the ones you don't use).
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs.
  It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see
  How to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
  http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and it would be
  UPDATE of the unusual with Avast and Prevx operational except for an occasional low level (not much) cookie,
  It and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note since I
  started using this configuration.

  I hope this helps.
