Hi Gang !
I am having very similar problems with Windows Defender. Even though I have
done everything in my power and knowledge to disable it and let my Norton
Symantec 2008 wall to wall Security program control things, I can't get the
remaining 8,9 drivers etc., uninstalled. [Windows will NOT let me change
attributes so I can finish uninstalling Win Def. completely !] : neither as
an administrator, or even as the creator/owner ? What's up with this ? Norton
has new definitions, updates every day or at least three times week with
REAL updated protection. Windows Defender doesn't do anything even close to
that. All it does is sit there and give my nb's security software problems as
it attempts to disable/close Norton and open itself as the #1 protector in
the security heirarchy hence my decision to get RID of Windows Defender. It
was great for early XP when WinDef was first released, however it cannot
handle the vast amount of realtime protection when running VISTA HomePremium
and MS Office, MS Gallery, etc., which really slow down my dv9548us HP
notebook. I was going to order 4 g's of RAM but after an honest discussion
with a REAL American customer rep @ Hewlett-Packard who told me about the 3.5
g ceiling on usuable RAM for 32 bit systems ,so I did not. I have been
putting off d/l & installing Win VISTA SP1 update
up until now hoping that MS would produce a revised version that REALLY
works and doesn't wreak havoc on other drivers and Windows programs.
Unfortunately it looks as though MS is pushing VISTA into the curb and
focusing all their attention on Windows "7". Somebody please tell me that
downloading and installing SP1 is really a good idea and has made your VISTA
experience so much better...anyone out there ??"
