hhupd.exe

[kaustin]

after I clicked allow it has not come up anymore, but I do get the "IE encountered a problem and has to close" offten two -five time a night
and the hhupd.exe that AVG picked up as a virus?

Hi,

Would it be possible to uninstall AVG (with Appremover for example) to see if browser issues still continue happening?

[kaustin]

I can uninstall it but how would the system be protected? some one told me that MS Security Essentials is good? do you think using it would be a step in the right or wrong direction?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good option.

Other good free antivirus programs are:
Antivir and
Avast!

Good commercial ones are from:
Kaspersky and
ESET

[kaustin]

loaded MS Security Essentials
I get about one IE encounter a problem and has to close
so it is doing a lot better

thanks for your help.

I get about one IE encounter a problem and has to close

Does it always appear after some specific scenario?

[kaustin]

no there is no rhyme or reason, it con pop up at anytime.

[Blade81]

Ok, it might be worth trying to run IE with add-ons disabled:
Click start->all programs->accessories->system tools-> internet explorer (add-ons disabled)
