windows security alert...

Hi all!

Just a quick question. For some unknown reason windows is saying that my anti virus might possibly be out of date (which it isn’t, I have version 4.8 home edition) but i im still getting that windows icon in my toolbar… any suggestions??
Oh and also at the same time i seem to have an exclamation mark on my windows defender icon?? which when is clicked says that i need to update which i do and then i am informed that its up to date?? actually it looks like its the same thing with both avast and windows defender, both being indicated as out of date or in need of an update but are in fact fine. ???

Thank you all.

Hi Kazmania!

Sometimes, Windows Security Center stop recognizing your antivirus or firewall… So, check your system time and date and also http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=23457.msg193534#msg193534

@ Kazmania

With it effectively telling you that two security programs are out of date. I suggest that you check your system date (double click the clock), day/month/year and adjust as required as Tech mentioned.
