Re: Virus protection out of date!



Its your anti virus program which is what windows is telling you about , You
either need to renew your anti virus subscription definitions or just update
your definitions

Hi!
I have a notification bar that say that virus protection is 'Out of date'.
It's Windows security center in Xp windows professional. I'm not so well
into security options which concerns to my laptop, i'm sort of lame.

I think that the cause of this notification is because i didn't installed
windows genuine advantage notification system 3 months ago, i thought it's
very unneccessary and snoopy issue or would be a snoopy tissue on my
computer, i personally find it strange.

When i found out about this out of date virus protection i went onto
microsoft update page where were some else uninstalled optional programs
such as; IE 7.0 (6.0. i find better becuse of habit), update for micr.
core 6.0. service pack-xmk services, windows media 11 (i'm installing it
now), microsoft .net frmaework x86, root certificates up, remote desktop
conn. for xp, microsoft base card cryptografic x86, update for
wmdrm-enabled media players ----> what do you suggest to update from
this files, there are descriptions but that don't justify their
installation.

Thanks,
With Respect,
Marko Rupcic
