Please answer all of the following diagnostic questions by number in your next reply (no need to quote this post):1. When (approx. date) did you install Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) and was the computer fully-patched at Windows Update at the time?2. What anti-virus application was installed before you installed MSE, was your subscription still current, and did you uninstall it before you installed MSE?3. Has a(nother) Norton application or a McAfee application ever been installed on the computer?4. Did a Norton free-trial or a McAfee free-trial come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (Doesn't matter if you never used or Activated it.)5. How have you been resolving this problem so far?Related References:Can I install Microsoft Security Essentials [or any other anti-virus/anti-spyware application] to clean up my already-infected computer?http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/msescan/thread/87058857-d181-4019-a723-efd9a49d9275Microsoft Security Essentials Support Forums (all)http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/mse~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (IE, Mail, Security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ Disclaimer: MS MVPs neither represent nor work for Microsoft
