Windows defender error

R

Ray

When I want to check/start Windows Defender "Vista" I get the following error
message " Application failed to Initialize: 0x80070006. The handle is
invalid". Does anybody know what this is and how to solve the problem. As you
can understand Windows Defender will not start.

Note: installed Vista today , 12/29/2007.

thanks Ray
