| | Re: F-Secure Anti-Virus and Windows Offender It disables the Windows Defender. - > you can have a look if you try to run the defender from the startmenu it will tell you that it is disabled. BTW : I do not recommend the F-secure thing. It is buggy as hell, and if it finds a virus you cannot click on the "delete" or "Quarantene" Buttons, because with Aero running, the buttons are on the bottom of the window, are not clickable, are only half-way to see and the window can't be maximized... Also it bogs down your system and eats too much of memory. I have uninstalled this as soon as I could and returned to avast home, which is in my opinion the best and the latest versions are full vista-compatible ( it already saved me from lots of viruses in winmail.)
