Defender saw the change and is letting you know about it.. On the other hand, if you're not using AOL, I'd start checking with other antispyware programs as well.
Hope this helps.

I have AOL 9.0 VR. It came pre-installed with the PC. Then after about 4 months of owning this computer I got that message from Defender. At the same time I started getting a security alert that says I have no virus protection(I do) and that Defender is turned off. It's on. So I dont know what's up.
