Hi Folks
When I logged on this morning I got a message from Windows Security saying that "Windows did not find antivirus software on this computer". I am running Trend Micro's PC-cillin ver 14.000.1341 expiry Nov\2007. I checked it and everything seems OK. Real time virus protection is turned on. The Windows message also says that "Windows does not detect all antivirus programs". If so. how come I never got this message before? Do I just ignore this? Any advice appreciated.
