Keep my Keychain secure... How can I customise it?

How can I set my iCould Keychain to automatically (or manually) lock after a few minutes of inactivity, without also locking the default login Keychain?
I do know this. But it doesn't work as I expect or want.
Basically I want only my passwords for web forms and internet passwords to be stored in iCloud Keychain so I can use auto fill and sync between iOS and OS X. Because I don’t know any of my passwords, they’re generated using Keychain. But I don’t want my Wi-Fi and email passwords etc to be locked as well. Only Safari.
But if I lock my iCloud Keychain without locking the default login Keychain, I still get prompted with email password etc.
I’ve tried moving anything that isn’t passwords for web forms and internet passwords into the default login Keychain. Doesn’t work either. Which I don’t understand, because as I read it and understand it. That is exactly what Apple writes in the Keychain Access Help menu under Secure for Keychain. I’ve tried creating a new Keychain that can lock automatically, but they don’t sync with iOS. So that's a no go. And have a Keychain with a Keychain.
I think I would love to separate my Safari logins from my admin password. Because I can’t like how Safari/Keychain displays all my URLs and usernames by hitting cmd+komma. But on the same time, I don’t wanna lock every other password for wifi, Twitter notications and email and what not.
I’m finding the Keychain VERY hard manage.
English isn’t my mother tongue, so perhaps I read something that isn’t there? Can someone explain to me, what i don’t understand?
I'm running OS X 10.9.2 and iOS 7.1

Try running Keychain Access/First Aid and resetting the original keychain.

lower your font size unless you have difficulty
MS Security Essentials is excellent
Then again maybe time to investigate Windows 8 RP (which uses Defender)

Firefox won't open, have run Microsoft Security Essentials & Malwarebytes, nothing coming up.

I have Firefox 18 installed. This is the third time Firefox has stopped opening.
I have run Malwarebytes & Microsoft Security Essentials all three times and each time neither has found any issues. The only thing that has worked has been uninstalling (using Revo Uninstaller) and reinstalling.
It has been working fine for about three weeks, and stopped opening again last night.
Oh, and trying to use the mozilla help screens in Internet Explorer is a nightmare ...
And I tried to use the Troubleshooter below, IE won't let that happen either.

Does Firefox give a crash report when it tried to open? If you hold down the Shift key when you try to open Firefox will it open?

ITunes still doesn't recognize iPod Touch with Microsoft Security Essentials Installed

Just updated iTunes to v. 10.3.1.55 and still have the same problem with iTunes freezing when connecting my iTouch. It will eventually respond but never recognizes my ipod. Un-install Microsoft Security Essentials and it works fine. I have 2 other computers with the same setup (software wise) and neither of those have this issue.
Here's a thread with more details I've posted trying to find an answer to this...

Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks,

Thanks for the suggestions, however I have already tried that and it had no effect. I've put in exclusions, and even went so far as to disable the MSE service and still have the issue. The only thing that corrects it is uninstalling MSE completely.
This USED to work fine until I updated to iTunes 10.2.2 a couple of months ago...that release seems to be when it broke.
I've even went so far as to completely reload my PC and it will work perfectly until MSE is installed....then no luck.

Cannot download adobe flash even after i disable microsoft security essentials. what do you suggest???

i just got an hp p7 q7 quad desktop. i'm having great difficulty downloading adobe flash player apparently because i'm using firefox as my browser. i disabled microsoft security essentials as instructed, but i'm still unable to download.
any suggestions???

I suggest that you download and run the Acrobat Cleaner Tool http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Next download and run the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ - all availabel Reader versions 9.5, 10.1, and 11.0 should run fine on Windows XP.

Fake Microsoft Security Essentials Alert Rogue: Windows Emergency System

The Malwarebytes research team has determined that Windows Emergency System is a fake anti-malware application. These so-called "rogues" use intentional false positives to convince users that their systems have been compromised. Then they try to sell you their software, claiming it will remove these threats. In extreme cases the false threats are actually the very trojans that advertise or even directly install the rogue.

I had been getting a popup that said it was Windows Securiy Essentials
claiming it had found these malware files…
trojan psw win32 launch
hacktool win32 /welevate.a
adware win32 fraud
After doing a lot of digging I finally did find instances of these files on the machine and removed them. As I recall the process involved some registry hacks. In any event. I thought I had gotten rid of them but it appears they are either
back or they’re not originating from my machine.
I’m still getting this same issue but its’ only from one site so far. I have run trendmicro’s ´Titanium<sup>™</sup> Maximum Security”,
also Malwarebytes Premium plus, “Microsoft Safety Scanner” and of course Windows Defender.
I had originally been using theTrendmicro
also ran HijackThis ( found nothing ) and had only recently switched to Kaspersky after reading over some reviews
on the two softwares. However Kaspersky didn’t seem to want to play nice with Windows 8.1 so I switched back to Trendmicro. Cant know for sure but I suppose it could have been the malware issue causing problems for Kaspersky. So now i’ve run just about
everything I can think of. The thing is none of these programs find anything on my computer. Everything I have
Trendmicro,
Kaspersky,
Windows Definder,
Microsoft Safety Scanner,
Malwarebytes,
Hijackthis
Says my machine is clean and free of any malware or viruses
Whatever this thing Is, it’s invisible nothing seems to be able to find it

Access Connections Problems With Windows 7 and Microsoft Security Essentials

There appears to be a conflict with Access Connections and Microsoft Security Essentials which causes Microsoft Security Essentials to generate high page faults and high CPU usage, and prevents normal operation of Access Connections.
After fresh install and reboot Access Connections would not launch, and when cursor was moved to the taskbar, the cursor pointer changed to a spinning loop. Clicking on the Access Connections gadget did nothing. Looking at Task Manager, Microsoft Security Essentials program msmpeng.exe was experiencing 5000+ page faults per interval. Terminating msmpeng.exe immediately caused Access Connections to launch.
System configuration: Lenovo Thinkpad x200s with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 RTM (installed with a fresh install) with all current updates, and all updates from Leovo including Access Connections V 5,42 Build 6JC725WW,
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Here is a workaround to fix the issue
1) Launch MS Security Essentials
2) Click on the "settings" tab
3) Click on "Excluded files & Locations"
4) Click "Add"
5) browse and add the following exceptions
a) C:\Users\Public\Lenovo\Access connections
b) C:\Users\Public\Lenovo\Access connections\AccConnAdvanced.html
6) Click "Save Changes"
The issue is also resolved in AC 5.5 which is posted to the web

Can someone please test both solutions and let me know if the issue is resolved.

There's no 3.6.18, so there appears to be a glitch in the update checking. Or the message is not really from Firefox (malware site).

IT HAS COST ME 2 DAYS WORK NOW.

Hi,
When does the issue begin to occur?
Since Windows system uses separated user mode and kernel mode memory space, stop errors are usually caused by kernel portion components, such as a hardware device,
third-party drivers, backup software or anti-virus services (buggy services).
Please refer to the following steps to troubleshoot the issue.
1. Boot the computer in
Clean Boot for a test.
2. Temporarily disable all unnecessary hardware devices in Device Manager, such as Modem, sound card or external device.
For detail steps, we can refer to the link below:
Device Clean Boot
3. Upgrade the virus definition, run antivirus program and perform a full scanning.
If the issue persists, please upload the minidump file (%systemroot%\minidump) to SkyDrive (
www.skydrive.live.com ), then share the link to me. I will be glad to assist you to analysis the data.
Thanks,
Novak

"Microsoft Security Essentials OOBE

Session "Microsoft Security Essentials OOBE" stopped due to the following error: 0xC000000D
The winlogon notification subscriber <SessionEnv> was unavailable to handle a notification event.
hi guys,
ive been getting tons of this messages in my event log viewer!!
any clues?
Kind regards,
RR

You could try this, to solve the issue:
1. Go to Start and type ”performance” - click on the Performance Monitor. Then, on the left side, go to Data Collector Sets - Startup Event Trace Sessions. Search for Microsoft Security Client OOBE on the list.
2. Double click it and go to Trace Session tab - uncheck ”Enabled” (if you want to disable the trace) - this will not hurt your system; OR, if you do not want to disable it, follow step 3.
3. After double-clicking it, go to the File tab and check ”Circular”; after that, go to Stop Condition tab, check Maximum size and set the value to 5 (Mb) - the circular option means that the file will be overwritten when it reaches the maximum file size
(which is 5 Mb). This will make sure the error does not appear again. If this does not work, try disabling the trace (step 2).
Have a nice day! :)

Endpoint not removing Microsoft Security Essentials

Hi there,
We're using SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 and deploying Endpoint. Endpoint is not installing though. In our client settings the Endpoint Protection component "Automatically
remove previously installed antimalware software before Endpoint Protection is installed"
is set to YES
When I look in the logs in EndpointProtectionAgent.log there is this message:
System Center Endpoint Protection installation error. One or more programs on your computer conflict with System Center Endpoint Protection.To install System Center Endpoint Protection, you must remove the following programs and then run the installation
wizard again. Error code:0x8004FF52. Programs: Microsoft Security Essentials
That surprises me, as the following Microsoft page - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/4acd0c29-e453-4863-8194-e479263291c8 clearly shows that "Microsoft
Security Essentials v1" will be uninstalled.
The version of Microsoft
Security Essentials on our client machines is 1.0.2498.0
Any idea why this is not working?
Thanks,
Kieran.
