This is not the fault of the Security Essentials program.  It's something 
else on your machine.  How do I know?  I was able to open all the BBC sites 
I tried and listen to radio 4.

Sincerely,
The Constantly BAREFOOTED Ray

Ever since I installed the MS anti-virus software, I am unable to open any
of the BBC sites, and am also unable to listen to the BBC programs using
Webbie. Has anyone experienced this problem? What settings should I change
in order to get these sites working again? I tried turning off realtime
protection, but no luck.

Thanks,
Geetha

Hi,

If your current system is working fine why not leave it alone?
