Posted July 17, 200816 yr People, stop freaking out. KB915597 is the standard Update for Windows Defender file definitions, of course you need to update these every day! It's exactly the same thing when Norton updates it's anti-virus definitions on a daily basis. This particular update always has a serial number in parenthesis (1.37.1234.1 or some such) if you take note of this serial number, this counter increases changing every day when you install the next update, I refer you guys to: http://editorsdesktop.com/KB915597.html "Noel Paton" wrote: > Ah - there's the difference! > You have IE7 installed! - would have been useful if you'd said that at the > start. > > Well - that's at least three Beta programs overlaid on each other....care to > tell us about the rest? > Beta on Beta is NOT a good idea - all Beta's have problems, and these get > compounded when you add another beta on top! > > Word is that uninstalling/reinstalling Windows Defender *may* fix the > problem - but I would suggest making your own life easier by uninstalling > IE7, then doing the uninstall/reinstall of Defender. > > However - the update of at least one set of definitions is known to be > buggy, so it may just be a case of waiting until the next set of definition > updates comes out. > > -- > Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2006, Windows) > > Nil Carborundum Illegitemi > http://www.crashfixpc.com/millsrpch.htm > > http://tinyurl.com/6oztj > > Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's > "drdavds" <drdavds@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news:E225B540-FAA4-4241-BAEF-CC4FFCE33DB6@microsoft.com... > > also note that i have the new ie7 betaas well as live onecare.thats about > > when it all began.i tried to uninstall and reinstall but still does the > > same > > thing.i updated {kb915597}14 times now. > > > > "Noel Paton" wrote: > > > >> So - did you follow the advice that was offered in the thread?? > >> > >> > >> -- > >> Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2006, Windows) > >> > >> Nil Carborundum Illegitemi > >> http://www.crashfixpc.com/millsrpch.htm > >> > >> http://tinyurl.com/6oztj > >> > >> Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's > >> "drdavds" <drdavds@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > >> news:1E23FE54-B5CF-47CD-8EE0-7668D5F6CAEE@microsoft.com... > >> >i have the exact same problem. > >> > > >> > "imvexed" wrote: > >> > > >> >> This update has been needed/required by my computer and thus > >> >> downloaded > >> >> some > >> >> fifteen (15) times and successfully.
