Oh yeah, if you have this WinDefender problem you probably have other ad tracking cookies and registry files that need to be deleted.
I used SpyHunter to locate my registry files and had them manually deleted (free SpyHunter won’t delete them for you).
I also deleted all my cookies and changed my internet privacy settings to block all 3rd party cookies.

Okay I finally got rid of that very real looking (but fake) Windows Security pop up that keeps suggesting I purchase WinDefender 2008.
If you guys have tried manually opening the secuirty center through control panel, you could compare the two and they look identical.
It took me awhile to realize that it wasn’t the same.
Anyway, this is how it worked for me. (Windows XP)
Go to Run, type in msconfig.
Go to the ‘Start Up’ tab.
Look for “SecCenter” (C:\\WINDOWS\system32\SecCenter.exe)
Uncheck the box to disable.
Exit and Restart the computer (it will prompt you).
When windows start, open your search and type in SecCenter.exe
Delete that SOB. Wait, before you delete anything, please make sure you have a back up.
I checked the date the file was created, and it was 2 weeks ago which is about the estimated time this all started for me.
This is a risk I took on my own laptop. Please please be careful.
After I restart, System Configuration Utility will pop up and tell you you made changes, etc…
Check the box (Don’t show this message or…) and click OK.
It’s been a nightmare. I hope this helps.
