I have been running Windows Defender, Spybot, and AVG8 on WindowsXP SP3 and come today non of them would update. So I uninstalled them and tried to download them again but I get errors every time I try to download. Its like some thing is keeping me from connecting to their server. I have even tried to download some new ones like Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware but they will not run. On top of that I cant even do Windows Updates or download Windows Defender. And on a more serious note when I double click my C: Drive I get a popup error that says "Windows cannot find 'RECYCLER\S-4-3-15-10002847-100004586-100001254-6022.com.' Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search." I was able to download HijackThis and this is what I got.

3. ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer's settings, including making I-E the default browser.
