Hi
I carried out a clean-install yesterday (reformat of HD and re-install
of OS) which went well and significantly improved the responsiveness
of my computer.

However, I am unable to get Windows Defender to install (it had been
running without problems, together with OneCare, prior to the
clean-install).

Please post in one of the newsgroups specifically set up for the beta
(software that isn't finished and is still in the bug-checking phase)
