    well windows defender isn't a very good program and i suggest you get rid of windows defender, i've used it before and found it useless, just keep KIS

    Windows Defender is only an Anti-Spyware (and it is useless) while KIS 2009 is a complete Internet security Suite.

    But when Windows Defender was still Microsoft Anti-Spyware, PC World recognized it as the best anti-spyware.

    Windows Defender easily misses out half of the spywares. The best Anti-Spyware according to me is Spyware Doctor and SpyBot S&D

    Windows Defender sucks so bad, I tried it once and then immediately destroyed it after 10 minutes of frustration
