2nd Windows Defender Delta Update: 1.63.2059.0 Link

Note: Unless MS is going to start pushing multiple updates, which I hope
they are not, this would indicate either a False Positive in the last update,
or a sig for an especially bad piece of malware, I recommend updating.

The 2nd link is as follows:

http://download.windowsupdate.com/ms...7418a60127.exe
Size is only 1,541kb, and it will not trigger a system restore point

As always, if you need the Full Engine and Full Defs update
[for example after a new install/reinstall of Defender]
you can get it at the Microsoft Malware Protection Center:
http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/
https://www.microsoft.com/security/p...tions/ADL.aspx

[As of this moment: (10:49pm CDT USA)
the "pushed" version and the portal version are in sync ]

Chris, yes I have noticed, not sure if they're going to "push" it out today
or not.
[I keep track of the pushed versions for folks]
As it is also an Engine update you would "think" that they would want to get
it out before the weekend, but I don't know what the logic will be. They may
release a Delta Engine update today, or over the weekend, or wait till the
Monday cycle.

In the past the release of an Engine update either at the portal or the
pushed version has lead to a quick update of the other as well, but not
always. The next engine will be 1.1.5005.0 I believe.

We shall see.
