That has got to be the funniest thing I've seen in months.

I agree. I originally installed an earlier beta of Windows Defender and
when I saw these entries in my event log, I laughed too. The thought that
one piece of Microsoft software labels another piece of Microsoft software
as potentially harmful brought a chuckle from my lips as wel... :-)

You can use information about how these programs operate to choose
whether to allow them to run or remove them from your computer. Allow
changes only if you trust the program or the software publisher.

No indication of what changed what. Really helpful that. Does it have a
"Don't show me this message ever again" button, or merely one that says
"That's nice"?

Nope. These are entries in the event log, not configurable program options.
I originally installed UPHClean sometime ago to eliminate ANOTHER event log
error I was getting on a consistent basis.
