Are you surprised.

If what you are saying is true, and it might well be, then it is
absolutely unconscionable of MS to use MSE as a vehicle to scare XP users
into upgrading to Windows 8 by deluding them into believing that their
computers are "potentially unprotected", when in fact, MSE will continue
to function just fine, at least until July, 2015.

It is being flagged as potentially unprotected because you are running
XP. It is one way Microsoft is using to sarn/nudge/cajole/scare people
into upgrading to a more current operating system, since as of Tuesday
they will no longer be releasing patches for XP users.

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

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?

Hi Gerald,
You didn't say which version of Windows, so I'll take it you are
referring
to XP.
If you don't want to see that in the system tray anymore,you will have
to
uninstall MSE.
I've got the same thing here, and it due to a MSE update on XP
Additionally, I get a warning message from MSE when I boot the
computer,
and I don't understand since it will be supported in XP until next
year.
My solution here is to switch to Vipre Internet Security
HTH,
Rick Justice
Tomorrow's another day, another way!
and if tomorrow never comes, problem solved!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] MSE Flagging MY PC As Potentially Unprotected
Hi gang. For the past two days, the Microsoft Security Essentials icon
in
the System Tray of my XP computer has been showing "PC Status
Potentially
Unprotected". Using the JAWS cursor to read the History tab, I notice
that
there are options labeled "remove" and "remove all" at the bottom of
the
page , presumably to remove harmful items that have been quarantined,
but
when I attempt to click on either of these options with the left mouse
button, nothing happens, and my PC status remains potentially
unprotected.
Neither running a full scan nor rebooting my computer changes the
status
to
protected. So how can I get MSE to change the status of my PC from
potentially unprotected to protected? Thanks for any help.
Gerald
