My Vista Security Center is turned off and defies all attempts to turn it on. Can anyone help me, please?
 
Have you checked for malware as a possible cause?

I see lots of recommendations here for programs like -

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

SuperAntispyware


What is going on in your Event Viewer? When looking at the Event Viewer, make sure you are an Administrator.

Are the dependencies for the Security Center Service having any problems?

Windows Management Instrumentation is one such Service that can cause problems like yours. See what this says about a corrupted WMI repository
