| 845968 | 2010-01-05 05:35:00 | Is its entry in startup?? Yes but Glary Utilities says it is an invalid entry. When I start Defender and look in tools start up programs it is listed there as allowed. |

| 845969 | 2010-01-05 05:40:00 | Try what it says here (www.windowsreference.com). Are you running Vista? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 845970 | 2010-01-05 05:48:00 | Thanks Speedy will give that a go tonight says I have to run it 3 times to get it to run right. Yes Vista Home Premium. | Roger Hunt (13648) | ||
| 845971 | 2010-01-05 07:15:00 | Out of curiosity, why have you opted to uninstall MSSE? | Renmoo (66) | ||
| 845972 | 2010-01-05 07:26:00 | Why bother? Windows Defender is the the most useless piece of software on the planet. It will detect nothing. |

| 845973 | 2010-01-05 09:41:00 | I uninstalled MSSE as it conflicted with Nod32. When it installed it said it would disable windows defender and I just thought when it was uninstalled it would switch it back on. Mainly use Windows Defender to keep an eye on start up programs or programs like Daemon Tools that I am unable to stop from installing itself in the list of programs that start when Windows start once I have used it. I use it and it sets itself to start with Windows so I go to Software Explorer in Defender and remove it from the start up list. I am unable to see any other way to stop this program from adding itself to the start up list, though there must be one. |
