Hello Al,

In Windows 7, Windows Defender is an antispyware program and can be used in
conjunction with MSE and Malware Bytes.  Although, if you are running
Malware Bytes you likely don't need to have Windows Defender active.  In
Windows 8, Windows Defender replaced MSE and is an antivirus and antispyware
program.  In Windows 8, it should not be used in conjunction with another
antivirus program but can be used in conjunction with Malware Bytes or other antispyware applications. Also, in Windows 8, Windows Defender needs to be
turned on.  If another antivirus program is on a system then it should be
uninstalled before using Windows Defender in Windows 8.

Take care.

Or, just type it in search and it will take you directly there. Should this
be used in conjunction with MSE and/or malware bytes?

I looked on my Win 7 64bit pc and I do not see Windows Defender in the
program list.  So I am assuming that Window Defender does not come on all
Win 7 pc's.
Can anyone tell me if this is true or not.

It comes on all windows 7 machines.  It may or may not be turned on in
security center.  Defender is more malware than viruses.

Hi all,
   I have a win 7 and JAWS     15.
I got some type of message indicating that Windows Defender needed
to run
a scan.
I  don't think that I even haveDefender on my PC.
I use "Quick Heel" as anti virus on that machine.
The message looked like an update from microsoft.
Has anyone seen this?
Does one need Defender on Win 7 machines?
I thought Defender was only for Win 8 machines.

Thanks for any help.
