Windows Defender

This message kept coming up after I turned my computer on. What does this
mean and what do I need to do to fix this??

"Application failed to initialize 0x80016ba. A problem caused this
program's service to stop. To start the service, restart your computer or
search Help and Support for how to start a service manually."

Re: Windows Defender

Dave,
I did that and it stated "The delayed auto-start flag could not be set.
Error 87: The parameter is incorrect."
Thanks,
Lauria

That's because it can't, no matter HOW hard you try.

Dave was wrong.

Set it to Automatic and forget about it.

Ah, I forgot I'm running Windows 7, not Vista.
As Jim has stated, it looks like it should be set to 'Automatic' start.
Sorry about that.
