I'm running Windows Defender Beta 2, and receiving definition updates
through the Windows Update feature. My OS is Windows XP SP2. Update KB915597
is popping up almost every day as a new update. I install it, the screen
shows a successful installation, and the "New Update" icon disappears. When
I turn on my computer the following day, it's back as a new update. Any
suggestions what I need to do to make this update happy and go away? I'm
using the Custom updates option within Windows Update. Is it okay to just
uncheck this update and check "don't show it again"? Thanks for your help.

Check and make sure the definition title is the same. MS stated in another
article that they were experimenting with multiple downloads per week (or
day). However, the definition title version info should be different.

1. Defender is still in beta.

2. As part of the beta testing, daily Defender updates have been "pushed"
from 1 Aug-06 through 14 Aug-06, Jenny. This was announced in the beta
newsgroups at the end of Jul-06.

Microsoft has established separate newsgroups for Windows Defender Beta2
support and comments. This is not one of them.
