My windows security center will not start, it says "the security center is
currently unavailable because the Security Center service has not started or
was stopped. Please close this window, restart the computer (or start the
Security Center service) and then open the Security Center again.

I have tried this and it doesnt work. How can I switch it back on again?

Thanks in advance
