Update Windows Defender KB915597 automatic update and other sources.

It seems that, after each automatic update of Windows Defender on my computer at home another updated appears another update showing about 3 days more later from "another source."  It should be?  The two definition links are link ID = 52661.  All definitions are different and my computer has been updated July 28,2010-July 30, 2010.  It has been also updated for the same KB915597 on May 27, 2010 and may 31, 2010.  I do not understand why the KB is downloaded several times automatically and also "other source".

TIP: Give your full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Windows XP 64 - bit SP2; Vista SP1; Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64 bit) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup.

Left to itself, Windows Defender will be auto-updated itself twice a week (usually the Monday/Tuesday and Friday/Saturday). These updates are updates "Other Source" you will find listed in the update history.

With Microsoft Update [1] as source of update by default, you will be offered that Defender updates when you run a manual check for updates. Here are the optional updates: If you choose to not install one, Defender will always auto-updated itself by what precedes.

====================================
[1] "what are the differences between Windows updates and automatic updates from Microsoft Updates?

"While Windows Update provides updates specifically for Windows, Microsoft Update expands the service to download and install updates for other software from Microsoft, such as Microsoft Office and Windows Live and Silverlight [and Microsoft Security Essentials]. Update automatic is a feature that allows you to configure your PC to automatically download and install updates using each service, making it easy and convenient for you to keep your current Windows PC. "[Source: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windowsupdate/FAQ.mspx]

  • Update Windows Defender (KB915597) and AOL9.0VR

    Hello
    Running Vista Home Basic. Installed Windows Defender Update definition (KB915597) (1.69.301.0) yesterday. Rebooted and tried to launch AOL9.0VR. Got the message of connection failure. Tried running IE8 and the respect, but has been very unstable - abandon or still holding to find the website.

    Stop PC and and came back later. Booted up and tried again. This failure of AOL of time as before but also absolutely nothing with IE8. All access to the internet have completely lost!

    Distrusted update as long as everything works well before installation. Performed a system restore for update status. PC rebooted and all was back to normal.

    Anyone know if this incompatibility is a known issue for the update KB915597 and AOL software?

    That would welcome suggestions.

    At the moment I'm ignoring the prompt update for this element of Defender until further notice.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Just to update all.

    Bit the bullet today and installed the update to Windows Defender KB915597, which seem to be causing my problems last week.

    Earlier today installed and rebooted and everything seems to be OK - AOL and IE8 both works very well.

    I suspect now the AOL or British Telecom (broadband at my home network provider) may have been playing with their settings.

    Have you contacted AOL, but still there has been no response

    Hopefully everything is now stable.

    See you soon

    I already told you why you all these listed KB915597 updates: they are all updated to sequential definition for Windows Defender, but these updates have nothing to do with your computer "[slow]."

    Your problem with one, two or three of the following:

    1. "remnants" of your previous install of Norton Internet Security and McAfee Security Center (the previous freebie from Comcast);

    2. your Trend Micro subscription (or trial) have expired before installing Norton Internet Security; or...

    3. a hijackware infection.

    -Online NOTE: If the freebie from Comcast Norton Security Suite (which is only "powered by Norton 360 technologies" but not a free version of Norton 360) were installed & working properly, Windows Defender would be disabled and not up to date itself!

    Since I installed the updated definition for windows defender-KB915597(Definition 1.21.1279.0) 03/03/09, I was not able to install the new updates. I don't know why, but none of the updates I have been install, or at least try, are installation and saying "Success" next to them. I've used different methods to dispose of everything, if I have any, virus and still have not seen any progress. And unfortunately, I deleted all my restore points to keep the memory on my laptop. I have too many errors, report them all, but some of the things I did to check to ensure that I have no viruses do analyses of the complete system and remove a mysterious software they gave me an alert by (using McAfee Security). Any help will be considered. Help, please! :(

  • Windows Media Player enabled at startup interferes with sound, video and other sources

    Hi, this is a known issue since I've had this laptop second hand! But always thought that one of the USB flash drives was the cause (Sandisk Cruzer Micro U3), since the mouse cursor blinks like crazy until everything is fully charged and becomes stable. It is clear now Windows Media Player peut cause this conflict for two reasons. A single, "WMP" is pre-activated on startup? (as confirmed with the Task Manager, he just goes there and "sparkles" like crazy). And two, "WMP" wants to seize all media, he can find by default automatically; I "can I" accidentally put as such (during an update of Windows that you are prompted), not sure?

    A purchased late 2009 "Pinnacle PCTV Pro HDTV USB Stick" product had never worked right? Cause the software "TVCenterPro" was unstable, and TV shows have been troubled and often froze. OEM is finally released with a great release of TVCtr Pro5x ("TVCenter6"), and it works much better! But I could only install it in trial mode until I found the CD product key.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled TVC6; but no TV (or FM radio) channels can be found in the full activation mode? And better actually worked in "trial mode; which didn't make any sense? Pursuit of the investigation, that's when I discovered "WMP" behaviour above; and forced a complete process tree removal. I did the same thing to TVC6, which cound not 'see' peripheral integrated audio from the laptop in full mode? And on reloading the program, it worked! TVC6 can now detect the device audio and pick up channel and stations by their identifiers as he did in "test" mode There's more to refine what I should do to properly operate the TVCenter6. But I need to know why "WMP" havoc on audio, video and other sources, hardware and software!

    The 'specifications' are Internet Explorer 9 (new), Vista Home Basic SP-2 and Windows Media Player 11.0.6002.18311. The embedded video is ATI Radeon Express and the audio Realtek High definition, the processor is Intel Pentium Dual Core & so on.

    * The system doesn't have a virus etc and is up to date. Has anyone met a similar behavior with Windows Media Player?

    PS: I just start WMP(11x) again, and of course, the mouse cursor begins to blink like crazy immediately. The only solution is to make the highest (force the tree closed the process and prevent WMP launched with the use of the other audio video).

    It turned out that the real problem was much worse than I thought! I had to reinstall sound, video and other device drivers; Windows Management Framework Core for Vista x 86 [(bundle 32 bits: Windows Powershell 2.0, Windows Remote Management 2.0 ("WinRM"), Background Intelligent Transfer Service 4.0 ("BITS"))], etc.. And preparation tool system update to find and fix registry I didn't know were there? (42 total, only 4 keys were fixed. The other 38 were removed one by one, after finding a way to change the access permissions; not even administrator has for Vista Home Basic; for files also). Addition of a few executables of line at the command prompt (indicated in respective Microsoft etc. support messages and articles online); and what you said that I had already done all troubleshooting (failed?). After working on it for two days, the system suddenly broken to normal; and works better than ever. Windows Media Player (11 x) is working great now and is no longer remains in memory when opening and closing several times; hardware audio and video is surprisingly better; even the works of volume mixer! And that weird State "crazy cursor" that caused the blue screen error if allowed to go on long enough are gone! (even after the insertion of misc USB flash and other devices). Windows updates found nothing to "change" other than the periodic updates. I also ran the command line to stop several languages of the poll"(tout ce qu'il s'appelle?), and"Windows features"appears much faster than the overall speed and performance." All that's left is to tweak "Windows features" for optimum performance; Therefore, the problem is solved!

    Please note: I can't turn off the storage management removable and Remote Differential Compression etc to speed up Vista even more (not). TVCenter6 works fine but "hangs" in memory (at the end).

    For these questions, please go to the related post via this link: optional features of Windows cannot be enabled or disabled, hidden Windows updates cannot be uninstalled.

    Support: Please add a "Mark" button for the problems solved by the user (and when Microsoft does not provide the answer, as is the case with all other messages); so I can close the nets, I opened as 'resolved on mine'.
