| Why do you want to turn it off?
If you don't want to remove it, then
1. Click Start > Programs > Windows Defender or launch from the system tray icon.
2. Click on Tools > Settings > Options
3. Under Real-time protection options, unselect the "Real-time protection" check box.
4. Click Save.

| Defender is not in Programs and features. I have auto protect turned off but it still comes up at boot and stops some startup programs again.

| | Opps - sorry - we're in Vista. Start, Control Panel, Security, Windows Defender, at the bottom of the Window Defenders page uncheck under Adminstrator Options use Windows Defender and then Save!
