You can try the Virus and Spyware repair tool - http://social.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/onecareupdate/thread/a110d77b-6829-4bc6-8a16-8125e7093913/ or you can contact support:

However, since OneCare is at end of life and cannot be renewed, I suggest removing OneCare.
See this post for End of Life information for Windows Live OneCare - http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/onecaregeneral/thread/81996436-edad-41ba-bdfc-02fc094e2ca9
Uninstall OneCare http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/onecaregeneral/thread/732e6371-2e71-479a-8cd6-b189941ed4fb, use the cleanup tool: http://social.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/onecareinstallandactivate/thread/399071e2-49dc-4767-932d-d261e3965943/, and then download and install the free Microsoft Security essentials for malware protection - http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/resources.aspx
If you used OneCare for backups, you'll still be able to restore from old backups if you use the OneCare Restore tool - http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/onecarebackupandrestore/thread/e5d686c8-762b-4b22-bc08-bfb93f911e57, but you'll need to seek an alternative backup solution.

Did you try the repair tool?
The error is a fatal exception or access area. Since it is crashing the scan engine, the problem can be corruption in the signature database.
If the repair tool didn't solve it, your choices are:
1. Uninstall and reinstall OneCare
2. Uninstall OneCare per the above and install MSE or other protection.
3. Contact OneCare support as per the above reply.

HI
I have removed the WIndows Onecare and installed the programme you recommended. The computer starts up quicker then suddenly becomes very very slow. when the computer speeds up again the Secuirty on windows tells me that the virus and malware is turned off yet the Essential programme i downloaded is still green. Why? Again i have to turn it on as I did with the windows Onecare.

Did you run the cleanup utility for OneCare or simply uninstall via Control Panel?
If you did not use the cleanup utility, please do so: http://social.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/onecareinstallandactivate/thread/399071e2-49dc-4767-932d-d261e3965943/
Then, reinstall MSE. If that fails to resolve it, contact MSE Support -

Since you have now removed OneCare and MSE is not behaving properly, you should open a support case with MSE Support.

venerdì 19 novembre 2010 06:25Run your system in safe mode:
1. Log out and reboot your machine.
2. When the machine starts the reboot sequence, press the F8 key repeatedly.
3. Select Safe Mode with Networking from the resulting menu.
4. Login. If the malware has changed your password, try logging in as Administrator. By default, Administrator has no password.
5. The machine will continue booting, but the Windows desktop will look different.
6. When you're finished doing what you need to do, log out and reboot back into normal mode.
