Re: [Blind-Computing] WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO MICROSOFT SECURITY ESSENTIALS
Bob, Thanks for the prompt response. My main computer is a 64 bit system. Could that have anything to do with this? I just found that I still have Microsoft Security Essentials on my 32 bit laptop. I imagine that confirms what you said in your message. The odd thing is, I couldn't find the program on my C drive. I guess I'll have to download it again. Thanks again.

I don't think anything has happened to microsoft security essentials.. Sounds like your shortcut on the desktop got zapped somehow. Try running it from your start menu, if it's there, are from the all programs list of programs. BTW: windows defender is a firewall which I believe is still live and well. Hope this helps..

Recently, when I tried to use my Desktop shortcut to reach Microsoft Security Essentials, I got a message indicating that the link was no longer valid because the program had been deleted or moved. I checked on my main C drive and there was no folder for that program, even in the 86 folder. Yet, something is still scanning my system regularly and there are links indicating changing the scan schedule, full or quick scan and so on. The only thing I can think of is that Microsoft replaced Security Essentials with something else. It seems to be working but that does concern me a bit. My research indicates that it has been replaced by something called Windows Defender. Is this right? Does anyone know anything about this program? I thought that it was just a basic anti-virus program at one time but there seems to be anti-malware elements and the virus definitions are being updated. Any help would be most welcome.

[Blind-Computing] New Information On Transporting Office Settings
Hi All, Out of curiosity I checked the MS Office folder in All Programs there was a save my settings wizard. I ran a search, and below is what I found. SUMMARY This step-by-step guide describes how to back up user settings for an Office XP installation to a secure Web site or to a file by using the Save My Settings Wizard. The Save My Settings Wizard stores information about program options and preferences, custom templates and dictionaries, and AutoCorrect lists to a secure location on the Internet or to a file. You can also use the Save My Settings Wizard to restore settings to an Office XP installation. Back Up Office XP Settings NOTE: When you start the Save My Settings Wizard, you will be prompted to quit any Office XP programs that may be running. Quit all Office XP programs before you perform this procedure. To back up Office XP settings by using the Save My Settings Wizard, follow these steps: list of 5 items 1. Start the Save My Settings Wizard. To do this, click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Office Tools, and then click Save My Settings Wizard. 2.
