When I choose to look for updates or click on tools in Defender, I get a
crash in svchost.exe and Visual Studio wants to start debugging the crash. I
am using 64-bit version in Windows 2003 x64 with AMD64X2. Anyone else has
this configuration and is able to use Windows Defender?

This is what appears:
An unhandled win32 exception occured in svchost.exe [3872]

if that is any help to the developers?

If you can get a memory dump from the crash, and can compress it to a
reasonable size, and feel comfortable about any privacy issues, I know the
developers would be interested in the dump.

I could do that if I get instructions. I am a C#/VB-developer so I haven't
been dealing so much with memory debugging as I guess C++ developers do.

Is it possible to get the information in the VS2005 dialog that appears when
the crash occurs?

I don't know that answer--you can capture it with printscreen and paste it
into a word or wordpad document--that's the old clunky way of doing it. Not
sure whether that would be useful or not.

(the last development work I did was in Cobol.......)
