Guest Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 It still is being offered to my XP Computer on windows Update as of today. It sucks anyways I didn't install it.Didn't think of that! It's Microsoft Update, not Windows Update btw. I never use MS update. Don't need or want any of their offerings.I ran MU under Sandboxie and got the ?crup? URL. I always remember crup but not sure. This one has ftpk instead.http://download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/software/ftpk/2013/11/mseinstall_6ea36a8b108517a4dc692afc30aad122af543239.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

submix8c Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 1 - @Flasche - kind of "implies" that the newer version (with a "mod") may be installable to "standard XP".2 - @-X- - Kind of "implies" that it's still available but ONLY through MS Update.(wow!)

Guest Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 My "implication" if for the old one that oldskool mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
submix8c Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) OK, you're gonna LOVE this, all of the XP x64 Users!Filehippo -also- has the XP-supported x64 under the name... VISTA! I have double-checked this and it's -sxactly- the same as the Original, so you now have TWO choices of "where to get XP MSE x86/x64". Either FileHippo -or- Web Archive will work!Get the XP/Vist/Win7 x64 (yes, all three, but we -only- care about XP) from here -http://www.filehippo.com/download_security_essentials_vista_64/51104/ HTH and Happy MSE'ing!========@-X- Maybe you could update post#1 to reflect this (even though you only work w/x86)? Also, have you "tested" the "theory" that the Definitions work with the "older" version (post#2)? This would allow for "multiple" PC's to be "updated" by a single download, if anyone is actually using MSE...-edit- Dang! Post#35 has the exact same FileHippo/WebArchive x86 but the "modified" date is newer. MS, you crazy people!

Guest Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) Updated first post!O/T: Btw, I still haven't slept. 28 or so hour ago is when I last woke up.Been cleaning the hell out of my apartment, catching up on all the lasted Formula 1 news, seeing what family is up to on Facebook. All kinds of things that these the series of tubes has that suck the life out of you. Go to 2:09 for the clincher. I know it's old but it still give me a chuckle.

HarryTri Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Strange that it's not available (AFAICT) for Windows8Windows 8 has MSE/Windows Defender implemented too. If you don't have other AV installed the Action Center warns you that Windows Defender is deactivated and urges you to activate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

submix8c Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I think you misunderstood. THERE IS NO MSE AVAILABLE fo Win8.x! In Vista/Win7/Win8 it -IS- Defender (as I said) -and- ATM MSE ("Super" Defender) is -only (currently) available for Vista/Win7 (and apparently POS 2009) -unless- you get the FileHippo (or archives -or- "offering" from MS Update -not- Windows Update?).Sorry for any confusion that may have appeared in my previous comments.HTH and "Happy MSE'ing".

nostaglic98 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Been hearing rumours on other forums I frequent that the latest updates to MSE is causing people's computers to become inaccessible? Not sure if there is any truth to these claims, but I would be *interested* to see whether Microsoft would stoop to such a level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if they started to purposely sabotage XP just to make it insecure, but I dont think they would sabotage MSE. Personally I haven't had any issues with it (besides the fact its a petty grade antivirus). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
