Ok. Thanks to both of you.
I'm probably not ever going to download or install what is in my opinion a really ugly browser but since installing MSE, my Windows Update settings seem to have been hijacked. Just wanted to make sure that it was at least still working correctly after placing my settings back the way I had them before installing the security software....that doesn't update...even on the hijacked settings....ever.....
But that's another thread somewhere around here probably. Just haven't found it yet.
