If you have Super Antispyware, why are you also running Defender?
Multiple Virus checkers or spyware checkers is a recipe for trouble.

Real time virus checkers, yes. Spyware checkers, no.

WindowsDefender is a 'real-time' A-S application, the free version of
SUPERAntiSpyware is an 'on-demand' scanner; A very good (trouble free)
combination!
