• Windows Vista/Defender telling me that I have multiple problems after update

  I use Windows Vista.  I've had problems since getting an update a few days ago.  Windows Defender is constantly telling me that I have multiple problems - if nothing has changed outside the Windows Update.  When I try to open my Convert (bought) the DVD program, it displays the message from the Red Cross stating that "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  May not be the appropriate permissions for access you to them.  I should have all permissions on a computer at home.

  It would help if you gave the details of the messages you see Windows Defender.

  It could be that you have a fake antivirus infection similar to this:

  A symptom of this would be applications for payment activate the software.

  You can't have more security or anti-virus software installed on the computer. If you have any other software then windows Defender can turn off automatically according to the other programs on the computer.

• Windows 7 Pro 64, windows update/Defender/firewall has stopped working. Firewall gives me error 0x6d9. Defender gives me 0 x 80070424.

  Original title: Windows 7 Pro 64, windows update/Defender/firewall has stopped working.

  I have Windows 7 Professional 64 bit installed, after the time of my last updated 31/7, my windows update has stopped working, and no so Windows defender and firewall.  Firewall gives me error 0x6d9. Defender gives me 0 x 80070424.  Update Windows to 7.31 was an update of the Defender, however, windows update will not give me the option to uninstall this update because the Defender has completely disappeared from the prompt that allows you to choose which puts up-to-date to uninstall. Is it possible to manually remove somewhere else?

  I ran SFC/scannow and I WAB32res.dll has been altered, so I copied the file on my windows 7 CD for 64 Professional (from program files/common files) and copied and replace my program.files/common files one.  I restarted the SFC and the same error occurred.  I had 5 errors like this:

  2012-08-03 19:15:59, 000002fb CSI Info [SR] cannot repair the military record [l:24 {12}] "wab32res.dll" Microsoft-Windows-WAB-Core, Version 6.1.7600.16385, pA = PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_AMD64 = (9), the Culture neutral, VersionScope is 1 nonSxS, PublicKeyToken = {l:8 b:31bf3856ad364e35}, type neutral, TypeName neutral, neutral to the public key in the store, hash mismatch. "

  I also ran Microsoft Safety Scanner Scanner, he finds 16 errors and fixed them (I saved the names), but even after I reset the computer my Windows Update/Defender/firewall STILL does not work!

  Anyone have any ideas? Especially how to fix 'wab32res.dll"maybe that I recorded it in the wrong place?

  I noticed there is one in each 'program folder' folder (program files x 86 and regular for 64 bit).  Is also wab32res.dll somewhere in system32?

  Thank you!

• Still prob/Windows shutdown Defender

  The program stops and turns off whenever I try to run a quick scan. 0 x 80508023 program Windows error code indicates Java: exploit CVE-2012-5076GAA and Java: exploit CVE-2011-3544. An update of definition could solve the problem but does not have the thought. Antimalware MS can't find anything.

  Re: WD in Win8 will stop when the scanning system >
  Yes, as there already the confirmed/validated by many users in hand-partners-thread, it seems that this question says 'analysis of Win8 Defender' (question which began yesterday with the 1.145.1429.0 definition version), has already been fixed this morning with new released updated definitions, starting with version 1.145.1490.0 of the definition, which were first available for manual download from the portal today at 10:16 UTC.

  If you still see this issue, it may probably be due to WD is not 'yet' last updated automatically (for a version later than que.1490), so you can try a normal-manual update now or by visiting the Portal and install manually from there, regardless of the current version of definition is now available [as of this post It's the version published 1.145.1505.0 at 19:54 UTC].

  Re: Feat: Java / CVE-2012-5076GAA and similar malicious Java applets >

  This is another (unrelated to the above) question you will need to take care of. In order to clean your system these threats of Java, please follow the procedures suggested in this post/thread related.
