Yes, Windows Defender was already off.
So I rebooted.
Yes, MSE is running - goes straight to a green icon.
Yes, Windows Defender is now still already off.
Yes, Windows Update is now set at "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them"
BUT MSE wont run an update and TrustedInstaller.exe is back to running 25% of my CPU... indefinitely it seems.
On my WinXP PC there is no sign of trustedinstaller.exe
AVG has an "!", but when I run update on it, it does appear to update. It may have been unhappy about linkscanner being switched off so I switched that back on. Even so the "!" was still there. So I rebooted. Unfortunately the "!" is still there. It is saying "You are not fully protected". Looking more closely I think it may need to be connected to my place of work. So I opened up a VPN to work. But that didnt seem to solve the problem so I'm not going to worry about that "!".
