Windows Defender Issues

Just wanted to give a heads up.

I'm pretty neurotic about checking Event Viewer on a regular basis and had a stroke when the System Events was full of warnings today. Both Avant Browser and PC PitStop generate quite a few warnings when they are initialized but apparently are not a cause for concern as I found out by Googling for information since MS wasn't too helpful.

Is it possible to set Defender to give an alert when a warning is generated? It would be nice to know when an event is generated to see what the reason is.

no idea, it's in beta so that may be a problem/glitch/bug?

I looked through all the warnings today and it looks like they are because Avant Browser is altering registry seetings for Internet Explorer to add buttons and feaures to Avant.

Apparently everything is OK.

I was trying out Avant but Firefox is still by far my favorite browser.
