    Isn't there anything I can use Windows Defender for? I know it's crappy and all but it's really beginning to bother me that it's sitting there on my Hard Drive not doing anything. Isn't there anything it excels in or is useful for?

    I have Windows Vista Premium without any Service Packs.

    You need to install your updates.

    Windows Defender in Vista is better than with older versions of Windows but it still is far from the best. But it still is not just sitting there.;)
