Can complete the download of Windows Defender Beta2

[Guest]

Hi,

I tried to download defender beta 2 to my computer. In the beginning the
download was very smooth and fast (I have cable modem), but when it reaches
toward the end of the download (the popup says 2 sec left and 4.81MB
completed) it looks like the download stuck and can't complete the download.
Anyone can help me with this problem? I currently reinstalled my Windows XP,
and prior and after to this reinstallation, I encountered the same problem,
thanks.

Hello,

I'll try to clean your computer first.

Download and install Ccleaner:
http://www.ccleaner.com/downloadbuilds.asp
Note, When you install Ccleaner, uncheck the Yahoo toolbar option.
Note, in Options, Settings, Advanced, uncheck - Only delete files in Windows
folders older than 48 hours.
Note: uncheck Windows Defender in the applications.
Open Ccleaner and press "Windows" "Aplications" and Run Cleaner from the
menu choose 'Issues' and then press scan for issues, Repair any fºund.
Run twice Ccleaner, the same as above,until you get “0 bytes to be removedâ€.

Look for the broom Clean up, also Tune Up..

Does AutoUpdate work on your system?
Try going to Windows Update and applying all offered critical updates.
http://update.microsoft.com

Be sure you have in Add/Remove programs Windows Installer 3.1 v2
(3.1.4000.2435)http://support.microsoft.com/kb/893803
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/community/centers/management/msi_faq.mspx

After all this I'd recommend re-downloading, and saving to a known
location--like the desktop.
After the download is complete, disable real-time protection by your
antivirus for long enough to do the installation. please disable or turn off
as much other software that always runs as you can--real time antivirus
scanning, any other antispyware software, (Stop all programs that are open in
the bottom taskbar) etc.

For the benefit of the community reading this post, please rate the pºst.

I hope this post is helpful.

Let us know how it works ºut.
