Since installing the latest Windows update, my Windows Defender gives a notification every 10 seconds saying "Found some malware, Windows Defender is removing it." I have done repeated scans that detected no problems. I have shut down and rebooted numerous times, but the warning message continues to flash every few seconds. Very annoying. Any suggestions?

We're now receiving reports from other forum users that a manual update of Windows Defender to Virus Definitions 1.243.229.0 eliminates this problem involving detections of Exploit:SWF/Meadgive.
