My computer recently contracted a virus (I forget the name, but I found a description on the Web). I removed it using the MS Emergency Response Tool which removed two files. I then ran MS Defender at full scan. Everything was clear. However, I now get a pop-up on the lower right of my window which says "Detected threats are being cleaned - No action needed." I think this may be a remnant of the virus or the Emergency Response Tool. I don't think it's actually doing anything. How do I get rid of it? I have a screen print if anyone wants to see it. Thanks.

I downloaded the free Malware from Microsoft and my files are not infected but the virus continues to be detected and MSE continues to clean. How do I completely get rid of the virus?

Hi, I have problems with the updates in a Win7 x64 Enterprise system. There are two updates missing that can not be installed, telling error code 80070490, therefore I downloaded the tool to fix it. It has been installed but the error remains... it was set in the solution for that problem that I have to repair the system with an inplace upgrade. First it looked nice, Win7 collected the data... but after a period of 7 hours working on it, the upgrade programm said "problems with the upgrade, no upgrade available"... Then I checked the registry integrity and ccleander found a problem with wuaucpl.cpl.. therefore I checked the system files and I found out that some of the windows update agent files are missing: cdm.dll wuaucpl.cpl wucltui.dll wuweb.dll can I fix that problem? Is there a standalone win update agent 256 download available (I could not found any by my searches)? My admin tells me to completely start with a fresh system, but I do not want to lose all my unique settings... It would be great if one could give me a hint to fix the error and the update agent, too (perhaps it is the same problem). Thanks a lot, Whitepointer View this thread

"Failure to configure windows updates. Reverting changes" I just brought a new laptop today and was in the process of installing a number of windows updates (for Windows 8). However every time I do this the updates get to around 15% and I get the message above (When I look at my update history it appears that around 45 updates failed to install). I followed the advice giving by your engineers on the 7th of November (re altering options via "msconfig") but this does not appear to work. Can you help please? View this thread

Hi, my sound doesn't work anymore, windows display a red X, and when I click on it, It tries to find an answer but It just tells me "Audio is disabled"... I already tried everything : Reinstalling audio drivers, checking the bios, etc... But I managed to find the problem : Windows update...When I do a system recover from before the windows update, the sound works again I disabled all automatic updates to prevent my sound from breaking again, but it seems now that windows will force the update without asking me...And of course the sound is broken when I boot my computer again, and I have to do a system recover from before the update, and then the sound will work If anyone did have this problem, and solved it that would be really cool to have an anwser, I've been in this situation for 1month now, and it's really annoying, thanks :) View this thread

Because MSE recently failed to pass AV certification. http://www.pcworld.com/article/2021495/2012s-worst-security-exploits-fails-and-blunders.html However, these days I never encountered anything malicious. I'm careful when I'm online most of the time. Still something bad might happen, not now but soon. View this thread
