I do not use Vista defender nor do I wish to. However, a vista defender
window keeps popping up on my screen saying I have virus threats and then
prompts me to purchase vista defender. How can I disable or uninstall this?
It is keeping me from viewing any webpages including my emails. Any
suggestions would be appreciated!

You machine is most likely infected by a rouge Anti-Malware program called
"Vista Defender Pro".

Did you try this approach:

Your problem is not a Windows Defender or Microsoft problem, rather, your
machine(and the OP's machine) is infected with a Rough Anti-Malware program
called "Vista Defender Pro".

You can google for removal instructions like this:
