Hi Ela,

Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Microsoft Windows Defender regularly downloads updates on the files of definition used to identify spyware and other potentially unwanted software. Windows Defender can also periodically download updates of the detection engine. Then I suggest that you install the updates from the Windows Update utility provided in your Windows 7 system.

For further information, please refer to the respective article for the update:

Description of the Windows Defender definition updates

Hope this information is useful. Let us know if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

    Hi Tati70,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    (1) what is the version of Internet Explorer you are using?

    This problem can occur for several reasons. You may experience this problem if one or more of the following conditions are met:

    > Internet Explorer settings may be incorrect.

    > Some third party such as antivirus programs, firewall and accelerators Web applications adversely affect the ability of your computer to connect to the Windows Update Web site.

    > Internet Explorer damaged or incompatible settings can prevent you from accessing Windows Update.

    You can reset Internet Explorer and see if that can solve the problem.

    Warning: Resetting Internet Explorer settings is not reversible. After a reset, all previous settings are lost and cannot be recovered. Rather than reset, you can reset the settings or delete your webpage history. For more information, see the links at the bottom of this topic.

    You can access the links below and use the tool to reset the version of Internet Explorer you are using.

  • Update asking me to install an update of May 9, 2009 - and have any questions on this

    Hello!

    I have windows vista 32-bit sp1.  I do not have automatic updates on and install when see new updates. (and usually do)

    I'm writing a summary of results case has nothing to do with my question which is at the end of the present.

    Since may or June, there are updates, showing as important, but I thought that I didn't even have the software for them and supposed Microsoft just erred by offering me some updates, so I do not installed about 6 of them.

    I've been looking at cela yesterday and found on the update screen I can do a click right of each update for more details and found that these updates are necessary.

    So, I realized that these are valid and that it must be installed.

    There were about six or seven dates in may, June etc. and I just did the in date order, rather than all of them at once, to be sure.

    Once finished, noticed was another 11 or so updates for windows vista yesterday and I installed all the people.

    Everything was installed and made, and no further updates showing.

    I explain everything earlier in the case has something to do with the following:

    Today I come online and updates windows says I have an update to do.

    It is said: for kb955430 Vista update, said important and the date is 19/05/2009

    Do I need to install this?  Or it is necessary before moving to vista sp2? (I don't know when will go to sp2.)

    I am concerned about the date and also while not knowing if I should install.  I can't understand why a significant update is being invited to accept today may 2009.

    That's why I wrote all the foregoing in case he has something to do with this update list available today.

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Michelle562,

    This update improves reliability when you install or remove Windows Vista Service Packs.
    I suggest that you install was updated for KB955430.

    Every time that you run Windows Update, it synchronizes with the server for updates and check the necessary updates that must be installed on your computer. If you decide not to install some updates, they will appear later.

    You get the updates of May-June, now is because you held some updates of the previous months and, therefore, updates that needed to be installed after these updates now appear in Windows Update.

    Thank you and best regards,

    Hello

    This problem can occur if a program (most probably antivirus) interferes with the automatic update process.

    Perform the steps in the following article and check:

    You receive error 0 x 80070020 when you use the Windows Update Web site or the Microsoft Update Web site to install the updates

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/883825

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Optional updates must be installed and which is an update of certificate root?

    original title: Questions about optional updates

    I noticed that refer you to the root certificates:

    [quote]
    Note: If a root certificates update is listed in the category of optional software updates on the left side of the scan results window, install it to enjoy enhanced Internet Explorer security.
    [/ quote]

    Thanks for this info, PA bear. As a general rule, I tend to ignore the "optional" updates I just pulled on custom and nine years ago:

    Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile for Windows XP x 86 (KB982670)
    Update certificates root [June 2011] (KB931125)
    Update for Windows XP (KB2492386)
    Windows PowerShell 2.0 and WinRM 2.0 for Windows XP and Windows Embedded (KB968930)
    Update for Windows XP (KB971513)
    Microsoft Base Smart Card Cryptographic Service Provider package: x 86 (KB909520)
    Windows Search 4.0 for Windows XP (KB940157)
    Windows Media Player 11
    Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1

    It looks like one of them (KB931125) should I move permanently! Why is - it is considered to be "optional"? Thanks again for bringing it to my attention. You'll notice that I didn't intentionally avoids install Windows Search 4.0 (KB940157), I've seen slow down a good many systems.

    Question: Are there other "optional" updates that should really be installed for security reasons? TIA.

    [1] why is 'optional' [update of certificate root (KB931125)]?

    are [2] there any other "optional" updates that should really be installed for security reasons? TIA.

    A1. Can you tell me, so the we know! I had been wondering the same thing for updates of root certificates were first years offered there.

    I always thought it had something to do with Win5.x (vs Win6.x) "architecture", because updates root certificates are installed silently in the background in Vista & Win7 (i.e. independent of Windows Update, but not necessarily independent of the "tunnel" Windows Update <=don't> ).

    A2. NO! ... especially not the .NET Framework updates, if you know what's good for you, in my humble OPINION. (If you install an application that is based on a version of .NET that is not already installed, the application must install for you by default. Unfortunately, this isn't necessarily the case with some third party applications [e.g., Roxio, IIRC].)

    You can install the latest version of each update. But make sure that you install only two updates

    at the same time and each time you are prompted, restart the computer.

    Some updates apply to files or services that Windows uses. These types of updates can't be installed while Windows is running so you should save your work, close all open programs, and then restart your computer to complete the update process.

    The foregoing notwithstanding, and since you neglected to install an antivirus application...
