MS Security essentials is coming up with "your pc couldn't be scanned" error code 0x800703eb. This happens the day after Firefox 41 installation with no other significant program installation or activity for quite some time. We have had no other security software for several years so that doesn't seem like a possible cause. Any ideas or suggestions? Have others noticed and reported similar problems?

Thanks for any help Hans

Hi,

So far Firefox 41 installation is clean. Since your question is related to Microsoft here are some Threads related to your problem. At the same time you can contact Microsoft Support

I hope this helps.

Thank you!
