Uninstall it and reinstall.

I've moved you to the Vista secution from Hardware, as this isn't a hardware issue.

What other antivirus/antispyware/security programs do you have installed? Some programs will disable Windows Defender when they are installed since they may be doing the same job.

ok, i have :malwarebytes, AVG Free, kaspersky, and spywareblaster, they dont react bad with each other, but maybe kaspersky is doing it....i bet its that but i dont know for sure.

oh and this is un-related but tripple6, do you listin to 3 6 mafia? because their called tripple6 by people who listin to them alot.

AVG 9 disables Windows Defender. You shouldn't have AVG installed if you have Kapersky - too much protection is just as bad as not enough.

No I don't listen 3 6 Mafia, never even heard of it.

lol ok. and really? well ok and i dont have kaspersky's AV, i have the virus removal tool. sorry i confused you lol. kaspersky dont mess with AVG, i looked that up =)

so is there a way to make AVG stop blocking windows defender? or should i just put up with it?

According to the forums on the AVG site, the recommendation to have Windows Defender disabled was from Microsoft's own advice. I would say better leave it off.

ok thanks =) i might get rid of AVG, because i need to open windows defender in order to go to "add and remove programs" but i might just put up with it lol

thanks agin =)

if you dont want to remove it why dont you uninstall what you want to through the control panel and open programes and features or download ccleaner go to tools and uninstall whatever

You defintitely don't need Windows Defender to access Add/Remove Programs. Thats found in the Control Panel. In Vista its called Programs and Featires if you have the classic layout in teh Control Panel.
