    Vista and Security Essentials
    I have a (Gateway) laptop that uses Vista and see that the Security Essentials is now disabled. Tried to re-start and got message "out of date"

    I read that Vista is now antiquated and assume these factors are related?

    Is there anything else I can download for protection.

    Thanks
