• Why can I receive e-mail but not create or respond to them after installation of microsoft security essentials.

  I got a message saying that outlook express must be reconfigured.

  In OE go to file | Identities and setup a new identity.  Add your email account and see if it works very well.  If so, then go to file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.  In security essentials go to settings and disable the file as dbx type analysis.

• After XP SP1 installation, activation of windows and upgrade to SP3, Microsoft Security Essentials said that I need to get Windows Genuine?

  My brother-in-law gave me his laptop Dell Latitude D610 to work on. It was loaded with virus and almost completely non-functional. I installed an old windows XP Home Edition SP1 upgrade disk (I had to insert my plu too Windows 98 disc) on it because I had no original disks supplied with the computer. I am therefore perfectly legal with that.  I installed it and I activated it until I went through updates. When I finished updates of service pack to download SP2 to the execution of the method to update to SP3. I tried to install Microsoft Security Essentials however it would not load and said I had to VALIDATE windows. I already got it activated prior to all other updates. How can I fix it? When I try to validate windows all I see is a white screen, so I can't go any further!  So basically I have 2 problems I need to validate (the computer says that Windows is already activated when I click on the button "Activate Windows"). And I get the white screen when I try to validate... Please help I know it's legal software, just old.

• How is good compared to windows security essentials windows Defender I run vista ultimate 64 bit

  When I run security essentials on my vista ultimate 64 bit pc that I do not in the Add Remove programs and stop some programs from running at startup to the top is normal, because it is not happened on my old windows xp,

  MSE (microsoft security essentials) stops Windows | Defender.

  Therefore, you will not be able to access Windows Defender in order to change some startup programs.

  If this is your problem, here's another way to go to start programs...

  Start > Search box, type msconfig > press enter > at the top, click on start > here is the list of startup programs.

  To disable, uncheck the box in front.

  Press OK when finished.

  > I can't enter in Add Remove programs...
  Why not?

  In Vista, it called programs and features, not add/remove.

• Layout of biased e-mail. Failed to open an email. Windows Vista Home Basic. Installed Microsoft Security Essentials.

  When you open the e-mail, the arrow cursor has the blue circle that runs continuously.  There are some letters lapping on the e-mail page.   No old or new emails cannot be opened.   Two weeks ago, I installed Microsoft Security Essentials and this problem has been resolved until today; the same problem to access old e-mail is back.

  Try to compact and repair the database (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).   Then in security essentials exclude the eml files of research (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3), because this results in a mismatch between the WinMail database and what is actually in the message store, generating problems such as you see.

  See if that fixes the problem.  You can also try to remove your e-mail account and then closing and reopening of Winmail opener and then add it again.  See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for information about the message from WinMail store organization.

• Computer problems since the installation of Microsoft Security Essentials

  Since the installation of Microsoft Security Essentials, my computer will stay only in mode "sleep" for a minute or two and then turns back on. Also when I turned off the computer, Microsoft Security Essentials also stops, and I have to turn it back on when I start the computer. I had the two trend micro PC-cillan and Macafee security on this computer. But I uninstalled them before installing Microsoft Security Essentials.Also my computer is supposed to go to mode after half an hour of not used but he is staying on.

• Is it possible to stop or interrupt the Microsoft Security Essentials instead of uninstall / reinstall whenever there is a problem?

  I'm on my computer Toshiba Satellite phone, Windows Vista Home Premium x 86 32-bit Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5250 1.80 gh 2 GB RAM with Service Pack 2, when using windows firewall regular and Malwarebytes anti-malware.

  I am trying to get into Windows Defender to remove the stuff start menu because my computer is running way to slow down. About 6 months ago I had a problem with Microsoft Security Essentials by turning and stay Orange (at risk) and say it wasn't scanning, but it has been. At the time, I was not aware that Windows Defender would be put off. Now, it seems that it is disabled automatically. There no way to disable MSE, if I try to change my start up programs in Defender, or even when I am trying to download programs, I always end up having to uninstall MSE, download the program and then reinstall MSE. It takes a long time and really makes me want to go back to AVG or even a different program. Help and faq are unclear and seem to leave a lot of information on. I left on the 'default' settings, for when something is happening, but I'm not quite sure this is the correct setting.

  I need instructions in plain language, and it's really hard to find. Since I left my computer unprotected for download or try to change things, I'm afraid that something got. I just went through a clean installation due a person with remote access in my system and I lost a lot of pictures, records, etc., I'm always worried about security now and don't know if I should stay with MSE or not.  I used the care a before Scan and he had difficulty my registry keys, that having people tell me I shouldn't have let microsoft fix my computer. (this was before the clean install). It's just confused and contradictory and not enough information. Windows Defender has a 'stop', does MSE?

  This is probably not the right area, but I specifically ensured that when I signed into hotmail the box 'Save password' was unchecked. I am registered on another forum, then signing in this one, he had my password registered and logged in me full?  Same thing with contacts - my old msn contacts have a way for this 'hacker' enter my computer through MSN messenger, he gave her the permission above my permission admin, so I couldn't get out. Although I asked that the old account closed a bunch of time - I guess there is still there waiting for like a year? Now I have a new email in hotmail, the clean computer, and the dang thing starts my old top loading details is on his own... - Anyway, my main concern is can I pause or stop the MSE? Can I use the Scan a care after I had no protection? and is there a place explaining MSE in regular normal verbiage with more information then what is on the help and information and download page?

  Thanks for your time,

  Nanette

• Microsoft Security Essentials icon has disappeared from the bottom of my computer.

  How can I put the Microsoft Security Essentials icon back on the bottom of my computer? The icon disappeared. Several times the "speaker" icon disappears also. I look at previous posts and solutions, but I do not see the guests that are mentioned. Thank you.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  Sometimes the icon simply does not appear due to a start along with many other process resources and the part of MSE to load the icon to not load damage. If you can open MSE and it signals that all is good, it's probably what happened. Sometimes rebooting resolves it.

  If you do not use a login ID and password for Windows, this can happen more frequently, especially on an old PC, but even a new. Windows Journal and journal of back and sometimes the icon will appear for you.

  If the problem persists, you can consult the following discussions and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

• Take off a laptop M4700 Win 7 of trend and put Microsoft Security Essentials on the results in a freeze during startup

  I have a laptop Dell Precision M4700 which came with Win 7 x 64 final. He also provided Trend AV software. When I try to remove the trend, it seems to have problems, but after a reboot, it seems to be off the system. Then, I try to install MSE which seems fine and can even update and run a scan. However, the first time that I reboot after installation, the system hangs on "Starting Windows" screen I reinstalled but unfortunately the recorded windows also includes the trend s/w and it shows the same problem.

  I still have an old Latitude D830 that I have upgraded to Win 7 x 64 Ultimate. It works fine MSE. He had no preloaded trend and drivers are a little different due to different materials,

  Any ideas?

  Hi hajk,.

  It could be a possibility that the Trend antivirus software has not been uninstalled completely. We can use the uninstall tools provided by the manufacturer of Trend antivirus software to uninstall the software and then install Microsoft Security Essentials. Use the following link to download the uninstall utility based on the version of the antivirus installed on the computer Trend software:

  Trend Micro Worry - Free Business Security Services: http://bit.ly/112g0A7

  Trend Micro Titanium Internet Security: http://bit.ly/172zNU5

  After you download the uninstall utility, run the file and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the uninstall. Restart the computer and use the following link to download Microsoft Security Essentials: http://bit.ly/14pG1fw

  Please post the results.

• E520 stock Windows 7 and Microsoft Security Essentials.

  We recently got a new E520 Edge to one of our teachers, had met with an interesting question.

  When you install Microsoft Security Essentials, on reboot, the Microsoft Antimalware Service goes from automatic to manual and the service is stopped.

  Before you start saying "Infected" do not forget that this system is straight out of the box and had not been on the internet for something else to install MSE. I also restored to the factory settings and tried again with the same results.

  A process that is to recreate it:

  (1) restoration of the system to the original image. (first attempt was out of the box)

  (2) strengthened with the Standard Windows 7 OOBE.

  (3) after the Windows 7 OOBE, a Lenovo window appears asking to activate Norton Internet Security 2012

  (4) does not have activate Norton as Norton will disappear. Norton is still installed.

  (5) do not install Office.

  (5) at this point, the desktop appears. So I uninstall Norton Internet Security 2012 and rebooted. (on the first attempt, I used the last Norton Removal Tool)

  (6) upon reboot, connected to the internet, installed Microsoft Security Essentials, upgrade to the latest defs and restarted.

  Restart on 7), started Services.msc and looked at Microsoft Antimalware Service. It is started and set to automatic.

  (8) 30 seconds later. Service is set to manual. The service is stopped. MSE has a red icon.

  (9) subsequent reboots will not start MSE automatically. It must be started manually. Put back the service to automatic will be cancelled manually on a restart.

  It must be something new added to the Lenovo images, because old E520 images had a different window of Lenovo who install Norton after asking the user, and MSE works very well on them, and I'm half tempted to wipe the hard drive and install that version on this laptop because I have restore media , but before I do, someone has a idea what installed app or rest Norton kills MSE program?

  He solved.

  Made a ton of tests on the laptop and followed the Lenovo RapidBoot problem. Looked for an update, and of course, there is an update that corrects a but in Lenovo RapidBoot affecting the Microsoft Antimalware service manual. Given that the system update does not seem to have the update available, here is the link to get the latest version.

• 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.
