Re: Windows Defender Defenition 1.35.716.0 failed to install.

 

[Crossposted to Windows Update, WinXP General, and Security newsgroups]

 

I have reproduced this problem (error 0x80070643). Users may encounter this

problem when updating Defender via Automatic Update, Windows Update, or from

within Defender (Check for updates function).

 

NB: Defender will NOT be happy and its "Alert!" icon will continue to appear

in Notification Area until an update is successfully installed. This does

NOT mean that Defender is not working/protecting your machine.

 

I have alerted MS and the Defender team to this apparent bug via private

channels.

Not necessarily: I uninstalled and reinstalled Windows Defender in an

attempt to fix the problem, and it's now stuck at Definition version

1.0.0.0 2006/01/25, so my machine isn't terribly well protected.

I'm frankly stunned that this could get released with such a clear

problem, and that Windows Security Support still doesn't know about it

(as of my call 2 hours ago).

Antispyware definition version: 1.35.716.0

has now been removed both from Windows Update and from Windows Defender

Update.

 

<http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/ADL.aspx> now shows

Antispyware definition version: 1.35.744.0

Antispyware definition created on: 2008-24-06 17:09:04 PST

and DOES install correctly. (As of this writing that's only the link

"32 bit Definitions" on the LEFT side of the page -- the link on the

right side of the page under "Latest Definition Updates" is actually

still 1.35.724.0, which does NOT install.)

 

Protection Scan of Windows Live OneCare Safety Scanner

<http://onecare.live.com/site/en-au/default.htm?mkt=en-au>

now works properly again.

We saw your first post. Why did you uninstall/reinstall Defender? Of

course *you* aren't fully protected now. I frankly stunned that you did

that.

As of this writing, the Definition version on

<http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/ADL.aspx> varies between

1.35.724.0 (doesn't work) and 1.35.744.0 (does work), probably because

all load balancing servers haven't yet been updated to the later

corrected version, so be sure to check the version before downloading.

OK.

To try to correct the definition update problem (of course).

Actually I am, because I first installed the last working version, and

have now installed the new corrected version from the Windows Protection

Center.

Re: Windows Defender definition update 1.35.716.0 fails to install

 

Indeed.

 

Any particular reason why you've got your back up about this?

Are you just jealous whenever someone else posts info and answers?

Or ... ?
