Baba - You're one version back on the UI code, I believe. Here's what to
do:
1) go to the Microsoft download site and re-download Windows Defender:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
run the download, it will update what you have in place.
Once updated, go back to tools. General settings will now be labelled
Options, and when you open that, and scroll down to the bottom of the
Real-time protection options area, you'll find checkboxes to control display
of the icon.
