Windows Defender versions and behavioristics
Hi,
I have a couple of PC's, one with Win Server 2008 Standard 32 bit and the other with Win 7 Enterprise 64 bit. On each PC, the version of Windows Defender is different as are some of their configuration options (ie, the ability to scan inbound email
on Win 7 64 bit but not with Win Server 2008.
Is there a comparable version for Server 2008 as their is for Win 7?
Regards,
Eric

Hi,
There is not more information regarding Windows Defender in Windows 7. It is just mentioned in the following website and is a very simple introduction.

Hi Eric,
I recommend using Microsoft Security Essentials rather than Windows Defender. More comprehensive, effective and it's free.

You should disable or uninstall Defender after installing another security program. Defender is very basic and does not provide full security.
