My computer is infected with the Cheshire Police Ukash virus. It does have Windows virus protection which runs a scan frequently. I have tried all the internet guides to removing it and have been unsuccessful. When starting in Safe Mode - Command Prompt setting, I can log in but within seconds, the computer is logging itself off and restarting. It is completely impossible to do anything. Is is possible for me (no computer experience) to remove it at all or should I take it to an expert? Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I am completely blocked from my computer at the moment. Thank you. View this thread

Hi all, I have been using windows 7 from many years there were no problem at all, but when i upgraded the system to windows 8 pro all the problems started. After a windows update system crashes and shut downs automatically, after i start it manually it works for maximum 5 minutes and again it shut-downs, this continues for 5 times after that it gives an error message stating your system ran into some problem and doesn't boot. I have refreshed the software again and again many a times, also used resetting the windows 8 option but it continues the same after a update, So initially i thought it was the problem of some virus because all the files in my system was erased completely automatically. Later i formatted the system completely using daricks nuke boot and installed windows 8 freshly but it worked for 8 days after some windows update it got crashed again saying your system went into some problem. Please give some solution to the problem. Presently i have turned off the windows update. View this thread

Hi, I last ran the windows update successfully 2-3 days ago, but when I tried again this morning I got the message that windows could not search for new updates (Code 8024402f when running windows update). I googled the problem and initially thought the solution would be easy when I found I wasn't the only one to experience this issue). But I tried disabling automatic updates and deselecting all other checkboxes to no avail I tried running microsoftfixit to no avail I also ran windowsupdate.diagcab without any joy. Hope someone out there can guide me through the process of getting windows update to work again - it's so frustrating. Thanks in advance, Neil View this thread

During a recent Windows Update (and previously), I received a "Failed" status (1 of 7 Updates dates 14/3/13, see above for my ONLY failed opdates), I tried all the options & Fix-it, but although Fix-it says it had sorted Update, ALL reruns of Windows update merely said "Your System is OK & up to date". Why can't this software remove "FAILED" updates and reload them. So far I have wasted several hours and cannot find a solution to what, to me, should be a simple solution from Microsoft?

I am new to this community and accidently marked this problem answered. The truth is it is not. I appologize that I have to create a new question. The original question is: 'Windows Update indicates this PC is up-to-date, but actually many more KB (including SP2) needed to be installed'. Hi Sundeep, I followed your instruction and did the system file (sfc scan) in the method one. The result is Window Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. I select all SR records from the cbs.log and place the records in a text file. There are many verify and 0 repair but it did not specify any file name. Now I don't know how to continue. This is not what I expected. I did run Checksur.exe, that was fine. How do I know waht system files are corrupted and do the repair? Thank you. View this thread

Windows XP, SP3 I had Microsoft Security Essentials 4.1.522.0 on my computer and I had no trouble to update it, but I could not upgrade it to Version 4.2.223.1. The auto update sign kept popping up on my toolbar and it said I had Microsoft Security Essential 4.2.223.1 to be downloaded and installed. I tried to download it but it said the file had no bytes and at the end it said some documents could not be downloaded. However, the auto update sign kept appearing on my toolbar. Finally this morning I went to Microsoft website and downloaded the MSE 4.2.223.1 and installed it. After the installation is finished, suddenly my real time protection of this program is turned off and I have not been able to turn it on. Please tell me what is wrong. Should I remove the Version 4.2.223.1 and reinstall the Version 4.2.223.1 so my computer can be protected? Thank you. View this thread

Me puse en contacto con vosotros hace unos días porque tenía continuamente desactivado la seguridad de mi mordenador. Me dijisteis que instalara de nuevo el sistema operativo, pero no puedo porque no tengo el disco, venía dentro del ordenador instalado. Cada vez que hago actualizaciones de Microsof Security Essential me da error. Ahora me pide que busque un antivirus en linea. Me salen códigos de error como 0x80070005 - 0x80070002 - 080070643 - 80070646. Es desesperante. ¿Cómo puedo saber si tengo un virus?. Por favor ayudarme. Gracias View this thread
