It's giving me a constant message to check for definition updates, and when I do says there are no new ones. The last installed August 5. What's going on? Thanks, John
My Windows Defender had to be turned off because my virus protection Windows Live OneCare couldn't run properly with WD on. I wonder if u have a discrepency between WD and yr protection??? -- demolitiondeb ::-DemolitionDeb :D-::

I wonder if u > have a discrepency between WD and yr protection??? Windows Defender is turned off, because the majority of the technology in Windows Defender is integrated in to Windows Live OneCare and is tightly integrated in the virus scanning portion of OneCare. The only thing that OneCare doesn't have is the Process Explorer that Windows Defender has, and this is a feature I would like to see added to OneCare myself in the future. In effect there is no discrepency. -- WildEagle Intel 975XBX2 Core 2 Duo E6600 8GB's of Mushkin HP2 6400 memory Visiontek Radeon 3870X2 120GB boot drive, 200GB download drive, 320GB games drive LG16X DVDROM, LG DVDREWRITER HT Omega Claro & Logitech X-540 speakers Viewsonic VG2030wm widescreen LCD Antec P182 Case
