It would probably be really helpful (why is this text so tiny?) if Microsoft
published the entire list of files associated with Defender and other MS
products, including the temporary ones. Right now my machine's ProcessGuard
had trapped and disallowed many new files which keep trying to run. MrT,
mrtstub, mpsigstub, etc. Only today does a time consuming search of Google
identify many of them as good MS files (vs Bad MS files such as Alexa or
Messenger or the remote access files). Not doing so creates the wrong
atmosphere by implying the files existence should be hidden from the machine
owner least he realize it is spyware. Of course once the customer detects a
"secret file" he/she SHOULD view it as potential malware as a legitimate and
bonafide program would have been named in a small list found in the 'read
me.txt' file that came with the initial install.

Because you're using Microsoft's crappy Web interface instead of a news
reader. Try this link:
