did you get recent update for MSE through the window's update? I had one for both win 7 systems, this was not in the optional updates list ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerald Levy" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, April 05, 2014 8:08 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] MSE Flagging MY PC As Potentially Unprotected
Hmm, interesting. So is it possible that MSE is flagging my computer as potentially unprotected because I am running XP, support for which ends on Tuesday, even though support for the XP version of MSE will continue until July, 2015? Or is it because there is a harmful item in the quarantined items folder that I am unable to remove?
