The log looks good now. :thumbup: Have you recently installed new security software, changed exisitng security software, or upgraded to SP2? Please post the error you are receiving.
Hello again, An automatic windows update was done prior to my attempting to update mcafee. I forgot to mention that in addition to your instructions I did a system restore to 8/3. However I still couldn't update. The error message was that my information bar was temporarily preventing the active x needed from being downloaded, however the download was starting but not finishing, thus my information bar would show. This morning when booted up my pc mcafee automatically updated without any problems. I didn't do anything else, hmmm?? I ran Virus Scan and there were some PUP from Gain, and one from a game that I installed from a software cd I purchased (Medal of Honor) I quarintined them. I also have a question, what is the nb………. that I removed?? Thank you for all your help Sherry
Glad to hear things are A-OK (even if you don't know why).

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [nbvxyhlh] C:\WINDOWS\System32\nbvxyhlh.exe

No clue as to exactly what it was… Just know it was bad.

GOD bless you, Ma'am!!!

Items you may wish to consider to harden your defenses against future infections:

Read "How did I get infected in the first place?"

Download/install IE-Spyad

IE-Spyad puts over 4000 known malicious web sites into IE's "restricted zone" to help prevent you from getting infected.

Check your browser settings at Qualsys.com

A series of "tests" (and suggested fixes) to help tweak IE's settings to help prevent infections when surfing the web.

Follow safe Internet practices:

1. Keep your virus definitions up to date, and scan your system regularly.

2. Don't open email, or download attachments from unrecognized email addresses.

3. Be careful when downloading email attachments, EVEN FROM PEOPLE YOU KNOW! Many virii, worms, and trojans infect a persons system then immeadiately spread themselves to the people in the infected persons addressbook via email attachments.

4. Be careful downloading files from the Internet. Scan all downloaded files with a reliable UP-TO-DATE antivirus program. Scan "zip" files BEFORE unzipping, and scan all unzipped files BEFORE USING THEM.

5. Keep your Windows and IE current with all the latest patches and updates.
