My suggestion is to run a full scan.  Manually.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] MSE Behaving Strangely


This sounds like a blooper from the back bage of Consumer Reports.  Checking
my System Tray this morning , I noticed that my icon for MSE 4.0 stated "PC
status : potentially unprotected".  So I opened MSE and examined the Home
tab using the JAWS cursor, and here's what it looked like:

graphic 399  Microsoft Security Essentials You haven't run a scan on your PC
for a while. This could put your PC at risk. Scan options:
Quick
Full
Custom
Real-time protection: On
Virus and spyware definitions: Up to date Scan now Scan details Scheduled
scan: Daily around 11:00 AM (Quick scan) Change my scan schedule Last scan:
5/26/2012 at 10:41 AM (Quick scan) 

As you can see, the page clearly states that MSE performed a quick scan
yesterday, 5/26, at 10:41AM, yet the message at the top of the page states
that myPC might be at risk because I haven't run a scan for a while.  What
the heck is going on?  Is this a bug in MSE, or MS's idea of a practical
joke?  This has been happening about twice a week, so I just ignore the
System Tray warning.  Has anyone else experience this behavior with MSE 4.0?
