Hi Rob,

Try scanning with Spybot and Malwarebytes;
The home of Spybot-S&D!
Malwarebytes.org

After they are finished and anything found is removed try defender again

I hope this helps

I don't see the reason why you have to use "Wds Defender"..Its a 'bos" ....
Its SLOWS your system down......way down...
Malwarebite and superAntispyware and much better.
