Microsoft Security Essentials on Windows Server

How to install Microsoft Security Essentials on Windows Server

MSE does not install on Windows Server, but will run just fine once installed.
Here is how to install it on a server:
  1. Download the MSE installer from http://www.microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/
  2. Run the package. Do not close the window when it fails.
  3. Copy the extracted binaries (from the root of the system drive, in a random-named folder) to another location.
  4. Install and run Application Verifier (Google it!)
  5. Enable the following settings for the 'setup.exe' file extracted:
  6. Run 'setup.exe' and complete installation
  7. Remove settings for 'setup.exe'.

Diamondback Edgewood ‘09

It features:
  • narrow tires for road conditions/speed
  • lightweight but solid frame
  • adjustable stem height and angle
  • double suspension (front and back)
  • different sizes
The original seat is a little uncomfortable.
The pedals seem cheap, and gear switching isn't exactly smooth.
Overall, it's a great value for the money. It can be used as a commuter bike and for leisure.
Available from Sports Authority stores.
