Why does my Windows Defender show as Out of Date?

When I click Update Now, Security Center goes out updates definitions for
Windows Defender, but...then I get the message: "there are no new
definitions to download for Windows Defender.

What's going on with this?

Thanks,

Try this. Go to [url]http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/[/url]

Under "Latest Definition Updates", choose your operating system type, 32-bit
or 64-bit, and try the manual download. Note here the instructions
pertinent to Vista: [url]http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/ADL.aspx#top[/url]

After this, is it shown as being out of date?
