Spybot and AVG not updating

Hi there, just wondering if somebody give me some advice. I had AVG 7.5 until a few weeks ago until it ran out and i (stupidly) didnt get new protection for a short while. I believe i now have a virus on my computer as when i try to load WIEx the page just doesnt do anything. I deleted cookies and temp files and restarted and this allowed me to access the net and download AVG free 8.5 and Stopzilla but I cant update the files. After using the net for a short while the problem with WIEx happens again.

With AVG i get a messege saying 'server will not allow updates' and with stopzilla the update seems to just keep running. I left it to update overnight and it just kept updating with nothing happening.

Can anyone help me? I only have basic computer knowledge but can manage most things with instructions

Much thanks
 
hi tashi, thanks for your reply.

i followed the link to download ERUNT and downloaded Regcure, and it comes up with a scan screen with a load of tickbox options but no boxes where i can choose 'System Registry' only. Am i doing something wrong? I ran the scan then it asked me to purchase the full Regcure, do I have to do this?

Thanks
 
Hi there,

Please back up your registry!

  • Download ERUNT
  • Save it to your desktop. Run and install this program.
  • In the box that opens ONLY choose "System registry"
  • Click OK.
  • Click save and then go to File > Exit.

Softpedia Mirror (US) .exe

Are you being redirected from that link to Regcure?

I ran the scan then it asked me to purchase the full Regcure, do I have to do this?

No and please don't. http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/regcure.com

Hi andyc114,

On reflection, as we have no idea what the infection is doing to the PC, could you attempt to download and run HJT please.

Let us know how it goes.

Cheers.
 
Hi Tashi

Yes I clicked the ERUNT link and it led me to a downloadpage which downloaded Regcure.

Ok, il do the HJT log before doing anything else

Thanks
