Hello Webgirl,
You might try this.
Go to the main Windows Update window and click on "Installed Updates" (on
the left-hand side of the window, at the bottom), and then remove "Update for
Microsoft Windows (KB931099)" (only).
Reboot.
Reboot again.
Go back to Windows Update, and re-install the same update, by clicking on
the Check for Updates button.
This should essentially re-install Windows Defender on Vista.

I hope this post is helpful.
Let us know how it works Âșut.
