Allan -
In a post to Safetyfirst you said disable Windows Defender. Please tell me where I can find Windows Defender and how do I disable it. It is listed in the Control Panel but when I click on it I am told it is running but there is nothing about disableing it. I am running Windows 7 64 bit.
Thanks for your time. Bob

Please ignore my question. I checked again and now Windows Defender is off. I don't know what I did but the problem is solved. Thanks Bob

You should set the Windows Defender Service to: Disabled

Much too complicated. Just run services.msc and set the service to DISABLED
