After trying to check for updates on windows defender I recieved this message: The program can't check for definition updates error found: code 0x80080005. I tried searching solutions to the issue on the trouble shooting microsoft tips website but I cannot find a solution to this problem. Has anyone had this problem before, how do I solve it?

I read a little bit deeper into Microsofts explanation for this error (there isn't one), but I did glean a resolution to updating Windows Defender. Here is a link taking you to the Microsoft site where you can manually download and install the updates. It worked perfectly for me: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923159/

Pardon the french assinine idiot, but I just came across the problem. And where were you three years ago? If you're so smart, why didn't you put up a resolution three years ago? I wouldn't have had to find the resolution myself. If you haven't had the problem then shut up. If you do have the problem then hey, it's fixed, isn't it, you idiot?

It kills me to have to keep educating the morons who can't read. First of all, moron, I'm replying to you assuming your response is to me. Having not quoted any of the previous message for all to read, you've achieved moron status 2.0. You're not posting only to Techarena. Your stupidity has been posted to microsoft.public.windowsupdate, a newsgroup.
...and yes, I will pardon you.
