| | What is Defender blocking Defender alerts me that it is blocking some start-up programs (little yellow speech-bubble in sys-tray says "Click here to see which programs are being blocked"). When I click the alert it opens Defender, but there is no indication of which program has been blocked. How can I find out? thanks M |

How can I find out? something like see blocked programs, that'll open a new menu showing what program has been blocked. If it looks safe you can run it. Typically in 90% of cases its msconfig being blocked after making a change, in which case its best to run it. -- Paul Smith, Yeovil, UK.
