Inaccurate about what ???, you don’t even use Win8 and have no idea what your talking about so stop posting your unknowledgeable rubbish in this thread as all you’ve done is drag this topic so of thread it isn’t funny.

The links your quoted http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/forums/1/tech-helproom/4214708/windows-defender-v-avast-in-windows-8--hmmm/#ixzz2UEgaQBRK maybe you need to re-read the thread again as most of them don’t know the difference between defender in win8 and 7 just like yourself.

Your second link http://forum.raymond.cc/tutorials/34406-how-to-get-rid-of-windows-defender-windows-8-a.html is 15 months old and would have related to the early beta stages of win8
