    That's why I'm here! Microsoft Security Essentails had an update and now it's saying windows didn't pass genuine validation, mse will become disabled in 30 days yadda yadda.

    I actaully bought my copy of 7, but reinstalling on the same computer counts towards your activation limits which was news to me when both my vista and 7 keys stopped working. I gotta stop paying for things.

    So yeah, what's up? Are we gonna be ok?

    Before the update it was possible to run MSE, so long as you installed it BEFORE RemoveWat.

    So what has changed?

    Yeah exactly, mine was working fine. I figured oldshot was just copy and pasting snippets of some TOS I never saw when using RemoveWAT.

    So what has changed??? Mikey has gotten smarter at detecting RW. That should be obvious! RW has not changed.

    We know the program hasn't changed. But it seems like this windows update makes it capable of detecting rw now.

    You Think? RW will work good as long as you stay away from Micks site and what they offer. There are many things they offer that you can get for free on the net and are sometimes better.

    But, it did work up until today. I, personally, am wondering if there will be an update for RWAT that will in turn make it so I can still use MSE, because I like the program and would hate to have to stop using it.

    Don't hold your breath for an update. Hazar has nothing in the works right now, as far as I know.

    MSE is quite a good AV, and it's free to boot.

    It's rare enough to be mentioned :)

    I have RWAT on 3 PC's running W7 Ultimate, with MSE. Only my x64 has so far been detected by MSE, the 2 x86 are still working properly after the update. Anyone can confrim/deny ?

    By now I removed RWAT, and then I installed Windows 7 Rearm Forever 2.0, and then I validated it in microsoft.com, but by now I have 30 days until activaion, I hope this is only a provisional solution, Ideas, suggestions?

    Thanks
