Last evening, I tabbed to Windows Live Mail to check email (usually leave Live Mail open) and EVERY single email in EVERY folder spontaneously duplicated as new, unread emails in the Inbox over the following 45-60 seconds. I immediately closed any open applications/windows and re-ran Security Essentials and Malwarebytes full scans (both apps were up-to-date and are scheduled to run daily). Nothing found. I've observed no other unusual activity since then. I have only ONE email account associated with Live Mail through our ISP, Atlantic Broadband. I checked with the ISP and they cannot offer an explanation. Can you suggest what might have caused that activity?
I had installed this program thinking it was only an upgrade to Msft. Security Essentials. I didn't want the additional products but after installation I noted my Windows Live Mail was uninstalled. I do have Outlook but do prefer WLM. I had to go to a restore point to restore Windows Live Mail and wonder if this is a glitch or if this is inherent in the new product. If this is inherent, why no warning?
Thanks,

I am running windows 7 with MSN and the McAfee Antivirus provided with MSN.
Recently I have been receiving a pop-up balloon to update "Windows Essentials", the balloon has a wrench and an "X" in the upper right corner. So far, I have just been closing this balloon without doing the update.
How can I tell what this update is for? Windows essentials is apparently installed on my laptop, but I do not know if it is really running or what it does. I tried to determine what Windows essentials is and it seems to have many parts so I do not know if I need this update. If needed, why would it not be included with the usual Microsoft updates?
I thought it might be for the Security Essentials, but since I am running McAfee, I do not need or want the Microsoft Security Essentials.
How do I determine what this update is and if I need it?
This question submission page is requiring that I select a Product and Topic within Windows Essentials - the only thing I know I use is Windows Live Mail, so I am just selecting this in order to get my question in front of someone.
Thanks.
MS Windows Experts,
I am wondering if I can delete previous versions of C++ of MS Security Essentials as the latest update should cover the most recent threats? MS SQL Server 2005 compact MS SQL 2008 R2 64 bit, up to the most recent update on 12/31/13
Do the newer programs overwrite the older versions in MS SQL Server / MSVisual C++ Redistributable x64 through x86 bit my last update was the MS visual C++ 2010 x86
Plus I'm trying to free up disc space and need to know what is the quickest way to create space,
Thank you in advance for your help!

This morning when I opened my Calendar all my appointments have disappeared. When I turned off the computer last night there was an Windows update installing. It related to Security Essentials. This is the only change from yesterday when I could see
all my calendar appointments.
My logon for Outlook.com is *** Email address is removed for privacy *** and my alias is *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
Please help - this will be embarrassing trying to reconstruct my calendar! The Calendar does not appear on my Smartphone either although I did not use that at all yesterday.
