[SOLVED] Automatic Updates Won't Turn on And I'm getting alot of popups. Please Help!

everix · 07-09-2008, 02:52 PM

When I go to turn on Automatic Updates I get the error message 1058: The service cannot be started either because it is not enabled or has no enable devices associated with it. I followed all of microsoft's steps and it still doesn't work. I am also getting alot of popups to random virus scanners and advertising stuff. I followed the 5 steps before posting a log and here are my logs.

Main.txt log (DSS)
Also attached are like it says the extra.txt (DSS) log and the ActiveScan.txt log (Pandascan).

Thanks!

Note: I had to attach the main.txt Dss log because I had too many images.

Hello and welcome to the forums

My name is Katana and I will be helping you to remove any infection(s) that you may have.

Please observe these rules while we work:
1. If you don't know, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
2. Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
3. Please continue to respond until I give you the "All Clear"
(Just because you can't see a problem doesn't mean it isn't there)

If you can do those three things, everything should go smoothly :D

Please Note, your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use.
Be assured, any links I give are safe

I apologize for the delay in responding, but as you can probably see the forums are quite busy.
Unfortunately there are far more people needing help than there are helpers.

If you still require help please post a fresh DSS log
