|I have a home network and notice that for the last 5 weeks I haven't been

| successful automatic update was on 1/19/2008-Definition Update for Windows
| Defender-KB915597(Definition1.24.5611.0).
|
| Have tried everything, including checking the automatic configuration box,
| but no luck.

| I have another Vista computer which is receiving updates without any

|
| Does anyone have a solution?
