Windows Defender? by
djkrus
My Acer with Windows Home Premium came with Windows Defender. I loaded a 90
free trial of Norton Protection Center at the suggestion of the Geek Squad.
The free part is ending soon. I have not had any problems. Do I really need
any protection other than Defender?

thanks for any help.

owner information to Active Directory. However
1) Is it possible to initialize the TPM from the computers BIOS?

I've been running McAfee, Spybot and by default, Windows defender and ran
into a problem last week when I downloaded something questionable. I'm not
sure if it did anything because various scans by the above mentioned programs
have not turned anything up but I'm concerned.
I ran some of the free checks available from different sources and each
time, each one finds some new threat, and each...

turned off User Account Control. I have my reasons. BUT, now I get a popup
telling me I just must turn it back on and that popup delays my boot up. Is

able to not suffer the constant reminder that I'm not going along with

Outlook and web access fails when updates are added by
PA Bear
Crossposted to Vista Security newsgroup.
I was asking about Office 2003 SP3, not SP2 (SP3 was only released 2 days
ago): Is SP3 listed in windowsupdate.log or in Update History at Windows
Update website? What other updates are listed that were recently installed,
other than Defender definitions updates?
I very much doubt that a Defender definitions update caused the problem.

Bypass RunAs by
pjw lignon
Dear All,
When a non-administrator wants to run an executable, Vista asks for an
adminstrator password.
If I want to allow an executable to run under a user without having to
provide an administrator password, is it possible/allowed in Vista?
