My Vista windows Defender displays a security alert. When I click on it, I get a message that says security center is made offshore.  When I try to turn on it says that it cannot be turned on. How can I fix it?  Thank you, Roger

Try if it works...
Start button > in the search box, type services.msc > (guest admin) > scroll to the Security Center. Under status, it must be started. Under Startup Type, it should be automatic.
If this isn't the case, left click Security Cebter > look in the left column, click on Restart (or early).
Is - this return on the status Started and automatic in the startup type?

If Yes, close the window. You check Security Center if she's back.

  • Windows security service

    I need turn on Windows Security Center Service.

    If there is a notice for this action center, click on it and it should turn on automatically. (click on the flag in the task bar bar [you may need to click the arrow to display hidden icons] and check to see if there is a notification of Security Center) If it does not, the service to which you refer can be disabled and therefore not allowed to run.

    Open Task Manager. In the services tab, click 'services '.

    Scroll down until you find the service named "Security Center". (under the column 'Name', on the left by default.) Double-click it. Change the option "Startup type" in "Automatic" or "Automatic (delayed start)" (the second option allows for a smoother start). Click on apply. Click 'Start' (not to be confused with the ORB 'start' or 'button' on the taskbar.) Or, restart your PC.

    a. Click Start, type services.msc and press to enter.

    b. double-click Security Center, click on tab log .

    c. Select "this account" click on the Browse button, type Local Service and click ok.

  • cant get anti virus program to turn it on in the windows Security Center

    I have windows vista and an alert pops up, saying: my antivirus program is disabled. I opened Security Center says AVG anti virus reports that it is turned off. I clicked on the button, and it didn't turn it on. another box pops up asking if I trust this program click Yes, I have confidence in it. Yet once, nothing happens.  any suggestions on something that I could try.

    Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. Windows regularly checks if an antivirus program is installed on your computer, that they are running, and that it is up-to-date. The status of your antivirus program is displayed in Windows Security Center. However, Windows doesn't detect all antivirus programs, and some antivirus programs report their status to Windows.

    If you receive notifications related to security on your virus protection software, but you know that your antivirus software is installed and updated, you can follow the steps below to stop receiving these notifications. You should do this only if you are unsure that you have a full, the up-to-date antivirus program installed on your computer and that real-time scanning, which checks every file before it is opened or used, is turned on.

    To specify that you are using an antivirus program that Windows does not find

    1. Open Security Center.

    2. Click on protection against malware, and then, under virus protection, click on show me my available options.

    3. In the Windows Security Center dialog box, click on I have an antivirus program that I will control myself.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

      Security Center displays your antivirus settings as not monitored, and you will not receive more notifications about your virus protection software.

    • The show me my link options is not available when the Virus protection setting is marked on.

    Windows Defender antispyware =

    MSE is antivirus + antispyware.

    Then think about MSE as Windows Defender with more added (which is).

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

    Here's what I use and recommend:

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
    Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

    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 + bottom right of IE)

    Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
    (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
    http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

    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 comes
    a scan only, 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 that would be unusual with
    Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
    a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.
