Hi all I too had the same problem with uninstalling my beta version of
defender after upgrading from xp to vista and after lengthy searching I
think Ive finally found a fix. Please read and follow the following
carefully.The root cause of 0x8007006 is similar as 0x8007002. It can
be caused by damaged registry information or Windows Defend files.
Step 1: Back up Registry
==================
1. Click Start, type "regedit" (without quotation marks) in the search
bar and press Enter.
2. In the Registry Editor, click File menu, and click Export.
3. In the Save In list, select the folder where you want to save the
backup.
4. In the File Name box, and type a name for your backup file, such as
"Options" or "Backup".
5. Click Save.
Step 2: Create and Run the Registry File
==================
1. Click Start, type "notepad C:\register.reg" (without quotation
marks) in the Search bar, and then click OK. Choose Yes when you are
prompted to create a new file.
2. Copy the following texts between the star marks and then paste them
into the opened Notepad window:
