I had installed the Microsoft Vista Performance and Compatible updates and
it caused my Verizon Wireless 595 PC Card to not be able to work after
waking up from sleep. I did a system restore to before the two updates.
Both my Windows Defender definitions and my OneCare virus definitions files
were out of date. Windows update took care of the Defender definitions, but
the OneCare console does not allow me to update the virus definition file.

Any ideas how to fix this?
TIA

Seems to have downloaded automatically and now is no longer a problem.

I can't help with the OneCare problem, but your network card problem can be
solved by changing the Power Management tab setting in the Properties of the
card. Select "Allow Windows to turn this device off to save power" and
Windows will then wake the computer and reconnect after Sleep or Hibernation.

Don't worry about the OneCare update problem. It is a known issues that occurs
when you perform a System restore. it will take 24 to 48 hours for OneCare to
sort itself out. The internal database is out of alignment with the date and
time of files restored during the System Restore, causing the internal confusion
for OneCare. You are up to date and you are protected.

You don't need to remove OneCare simply because the definitions are out of date
- particularly if it is due to the known issue that causes this to be reported
after a System Restore.
However, you did cover something I overlooked. Defender should not be enabled if
OneCare is installed.

Hi, Chad. Thanks. :-) I'm not sure I'd take the moniker of "expert," though.
Yes, I do wish that OneCare uninstall was cleaner and complete. Even the use the
cleanup tool -

Yep, after 24 to 48 hours the internal OneCare database and the update server
are once again able to sync up and agree with each other following a System
Restore. Glad to read that all is well again for you.
