I have windows 7 with Microsoft security essentials up-to-date but when i check the system health report(Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Performance Information and Tools\Advanced Tools\Generate a system health report) it says there's no anti-virus
It's said that since I began using Windows 7, in the Beta build 7000 back in January 2009. Using Avast. I don't think it's anything to worry about. The system is aware you have a AV installed. You can tell from the action center giving you a popup when you don't have one installed. Had discussions of it from a long time ago, can't remember exactly what the answer was for why it's like that though. Either something with the programs vendor not bothering registering some file with it for detection in the health report, or having to be on Windows 7 fault that they never bothered fixing yet.
I get the same reports.
thanks Airbot and bludgard69. so i'm not alone-that's a relief.thought i messed up the settings.thanks again for your time and help.
