antivirus not working after updating BIOS

I updated the BIOS of my 1501 Inspiron from V2.3.0 to V2.4.1 and the antivirus software(windows live onecare) stopped working. I am getting the message that antivirus and spyware files cannot be updated. I followed the instruction of the software website to troubleshoot but to no use.
 
Can anybody help,please.

What you do to update it???
What antispyware are you using??? Windows Defender??? Have you tried uninstall it and reinstall the Live One Care???

I just download the BIOS revision from dell website and run that as an adminstrator and that is all what I did.
 
Now I uninstalled the anti virus sofware (Windows liveone care ) and re-installed and everything worked properly as before.
