Hello!
I found a trouble with file scaning today.
When I select a folder and right click press scan I see "Scan Options" window.
How can I fix it?

RE: Menu Scan don't scan

ok here it is

ok i am using windows vista home premium SP1(dont know how to get SP2)

i downloaded it using firefox (dont remember what version, downloaded it like a month ago)

and i have windows defender. I ONLY trust McAfee! 😃 ( when windows starts up it says windows defender could not be started. i think it is because mcafee "kickes" WD(windows defender). when i reinstalled it iand i only had WD installed i didnt have the error.
EDIT: i did use the removal tool to remove it the second and third time

You might want to check for updates/patches at the Microsoft Update center: http://update.microsoft.com/

Use the "Custom" button and install all critical updates and you might also want to install the "optional" updates.
