If you'd read my message properly, the icon also changes its status from Protected to At Risk, so you'd immediately know that something needed your attention. Lack of attention to detail especially on list traffic such as this really peeves me off, so please read before thoughtlessly replying OK? -----Original Message----- From: Eleanor Burke Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2011 1:34 AM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Updating Microsoft Security Essentials You are correct of course about the icon changing colour which alerted me to the problem but then some people cannot see this colour change. -original message- Subject: [access-uk] Re: Updating Microsoft Security Essentials From: "Ibrahim Gucukoglu" <ibrahim_gucukoglu@xxxxxxxx> Date: 06/12/2011 1:31 am Hi Tom. I'd just add that it isn't necessary to set up a scheduled scan to receive updates as Security Essentials automatically checks for updates in the background periodically anyway, regardless of scan settings. You will always know if there is a problem as the security essentials status icon will change colour and will show at risk status if updates haven't for some reason been downloaded or successfully installed. All the best, Ibrahim. -----Original Message----- From: Tom Sent: Monday, December 05, 2011 11:36 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Updating Microsoft Security Essentials Hi Eleanor, If you click on the Microsoft Security Essentials icon in the System Tray you can set up a scan time which will update the program before the scan starts. Just Tab to the, Change my scan schedule and press the Enter key, then use the Tab key to change the options. You can also manually update the virus and spyware definitions by Tabbing to the Home button then arrow right once to the Update button. Tab once to Update and press the Enter key to start the update. To check if any virus or spyware was found, Tab to the Home button then arrow right twice to the History button. Now Tab once then use your down arrow and select, All Detected Items. Tab again and if any nasties are found it will tell you what they are. If there are no nasties, then you will just Tab between the History button and the All Detected Items option. Press Alt F4 to exit the program which will leave it in the System Tray. Tom. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eleanor Burke" <eleanorburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, December 05, 2011 10:49 PM Subject: [access-uk] Updating Microsoft Security Essentials > Hi All > I put MSE on my computer but I have run up against a problem, namely, it > is not keeping up-to-date.
