Name -> Give some name and description to identify this rule.
Profile -> Keep all three (Domain, Private and public) checked Program ->Browse to the msseces.exe On my PC it was at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Security Client\msseces.exe * Open Windows Firewall and Advanced security Here is how I accomplished this (on my Windows 7 Service Pack 1) If you have problems installing Security Essentials after you remove. I created a firewall rule which blocks Microsoft Security Essential from any outbound connections thus, it wont be able to check definition updates (which I know is not recommended but some people like me would be interested). In Windows Vista and Windows 7, click Start, click in the Start Search box. I googled and found some registry changes and some I tried on my own, but none worked (may be I wasn't able to configure it properly) but then the following trick worked. This ends up with people having MS Security Essentials say their computer is at risk, due to not having been scanned recently.
I too wanted to disable Auto Update due to data volume plan (1GB). All the employees at my work shutdown their Windows 7 computers (iMacs running BootCamp) when they leave work.
