    Ok here are the scrshots (Its in dutch so you may wont understand it). Basicly when i open a pic it wants me to agree to the microsoft license (screenshots 1). I press deny and then a little window pops out and asks if i really want to quit the MSE installation (screenshot 2)

    Here it wants me to agree to the MS license...

    That is Live essentials not security essentials. my guess is the Live photo gallery application is set as default, therefore it wants setup or upgraded. accept the install or go into control panel, add/remove applications and uninstall Live essentials

    new version is here if you want it
    Windows Essentials - Download Windows Live Essentials
