Greetings, I hope someone here can help me.

I'm running MSE, Microsoft Security Essentials, and it has always ran good for me, at far as protection goes.
It's just this one annoying thing I can't seem to find any help with.

It constantly tells me I need scanning. I have it set to a scheduled scan and even if I manually run a full system scan finding no problems. 20 mins later and usually 4 or 5 times a day the icon in the task bar turns orange and tells me I need to run a scan.

Why does it do this?
 
Could someone please help me with some info here or point me in the right direction.
It's frustrating as HE double hockey sticks.

I scan for infections, comes back clean and turns green and less than a minute later, it's orange and tells me I need to scan for infections.

Any info at all!

Thank-you for your time.
