Microsoft Security Essentials is very good. When you installed it it would have automatically switched off Defender as it is no longer required as would any other protection system that you had installed.

The error code appears to be caused by Defender trying to update whilst in this disabled condition.

Just make sure it is disabled and stop trying to start it and the problem might go away.

MSE usually sets a restore point whenever it updates, so there will be some in the system somewhere. Sometimes you cannot see the restore points or do a manual restore for some reason, but if you go to safe mode and pick "last known good config" it normally finds one!

Keep your Windows updates up to date and don`t worry about the problem too much.

You can also go to: start - accessories - run, then type in sfc /scannow (there is a space between the c and /) to do a diagnostic and see what it comes up with to repair any errors it might detect.

If you think that you need to check for any intruders then down load and run the free version of: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php as it is the considered to be the best at the moment for removal of malware. You have to update it before you run it as the free version does not do that automatically. It only scans when you tell it to and so does not conflict with MSE.

Use the Windows firewall as most of the newer versions are OK, and they work better with MSE.

Your speakers not working might be an unrelated problem, try checking the cables and the audio drivers.

Best of luck with it, Bob.

I don't think it has any thing to do with your AntiVirus. Check your System32 Folder in C drive for error. Use registry mechanic of any registry editor to restore it to default.

Also try to re-install your sound driver. May be it will Work. Otherwise, lastly you have to format complete PC.

i had the same problems over and over again with microsoft security for years different things every day from them i switched to avast about a year ago and they are the best ive not had 1 complaint about them since changing to them yes you can do these things but its up to you it wont hurt to reinstall them but take my advice and switch to avast !!!!! good luck

i have microsoft security essentials free as my anti virus and that seems to be working okay,

Try using Spybot Search and Destroy....it will help :))
