Guest countrygirl Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 My icon says that my auto updates have been disabled. When I go to change it the security center has the auto updates checked that they are in fact enabled. I go to the security website and it checks to see if I'm running the proper stuff and then I get a message saying... error 0x8DD0018, The site cannot continue because one or more of these Windows services is not running:Automatic Updates (allows the site to find, download and install high-priority updates for your computer) Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) (helps updates download more quickly and without problems if the download process is interrupted) Event Log (keeps a record of updating activities to help with troubleshooting, if needed) To make sure these services are running: 1. Click Start, and then click Run. 2. Type services.msc and then click OK. 3. In the list of services, double-click on Automatic Updates and then click Properties. 4. In the Startup type list, select Automatic and click Apply. 5. Verify that the Service status is started, if the Service Status is Stopped click on the Start Button. 6. In the list of services, double-click on Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) and then click Properties. 7. In the Startup type list, select Manual and click Apply. 8. Verify that the Service status is started, If the Service Status is Stopped click on the Start Button. 9. In the list of services, double-click on Event Log and then click Properties. 10. In the Startup type list, select Automatic and click Apply. 11. Verify that the Service status is started, If the Service Status is Stopped click on the Start Button. I do all these things but it never kicks off of being disabled in the services page. I sometimes get a error 1058 too, pertaining to this. Can anyone assist me?
Guest MowGreen [MVP] Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Re: Auto updates error If neither of these KB articles resolve the issue then the system is infected with malware. Most likely Vundo/Virtumonde/Zlob/SDbot or a combination of them all.

Guest PA Bear [MS MVP] Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Re: Auto updates error There's a very strong possibility that you have a Vundo infection, which is usually accompanied by ZLOB and/or SDBot infections, all of which are protected by a rootkit. Run a thorough check for hijackware, including posting your hijackthis log to an appropriate forum.

HijackThis will NOT fix anything on its own, but it will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with assistance from an expert. **Post your log to http://spywarehammer.com/simplemachinesforum/index.php?board=10.0, http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22, http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30, or another appropriate forum for review by an expert in such matters, not here.** If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Desktop Experience - since 2002 AumHa VSOP & Admin http://aumha.net DTS-L http://dts-l.net/ countrygirl wrote: > My icon says that my auto updates have been disabled.
