Malicious Removal Tools Update Message Icon
Jul 12, 2008
I received an update message icon from microsoft. The updates included security for Windows 2000, which is my OS system, and Malicious Removal Tools. Before the installation of these updates, the wired Internet connection in my computer was OK. However, after I installed these updates, my wired Internet connection failed. I tried to restart my computer, updated driver for my network card 3 COM 3C920B-EMB, but I could not re-establish the Internet connection. the wireless Internet connection at my sister's computer was OK, the wired Internet connection at my friend's computer was also OK

I reformatted a friend's computer and reinstalled XP from the disk. Rather than mess around with SP2 I went ahead and installed SP3 afterwards. When it was in the process of installing the IE (whatever one comes with it), the MSRT tool cropped up and found over 435 files that were "infected".

I am getting this Security Alter message saying that " Your computer is infected with last version of PSW.x-Vir trojan. I recently downloaded this program called Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool. Hopefully this program will help me remove this trojan, but if anyone can let me know about what programs i could use to remove or if anyone could help me remove this trojan that would be greatful. Also i am getting this message on my toolbar with an x and a question mark on top of it saying that your system detected virus activities and when i click on it, it sends me to this weblink http://www.virusburst.com/?aff=321.

On my computer suddenly & without pro vacation or malice Windows XP Pro just arbitrarily decided to remove the My Computer icon from the desktop.I can restore it by going to the start menu, right clicking and then going properties,selecting start menu and add it from there, but when I go back to the classic start menu it takes it away again.It seems it will only let me have it if I added it using the Start Menu and I can't stand the size of it and all the crap that comes with it.I prefer the Classic start Menu as used in earlier versions of windows.

I am using a Dell, Windows XP Professional laptop computer. It has a non- wireless connection to the internet via my LAN.Last week, the yellow update "shield" icon appeared in my systray and I updated Windows - the update was completed. Since then, the update shield icon has appeared in my systray four times. I installed the update each time, but it seems to have been the same update each time ("KB 967715"). If it is the same update each time, which it seems to be, why would the update "shield" appear in my systray four times within a week and a half to install the same update

Windows update shield informs me I need to install Office XP SP3. I click on it, but the installation hangs up halfway through asking me to insert the Office XP CD - which I don't have.
Went to Microsoft download page and clicked on full file version (SINCE I don't have the CD), but still get the request to insert the CD halfway through the installation. Since I can't complete the download, the update icon pops up every time I log on. Any suggestions?

Computer runs on Windows XP Home SP2. Since the last two or three monthly Window updates, that yellow shield icon - the Windows Update icon - no longer shows up in the system tray. I tried to locate it under "previous elements" (I'm translating from German since my computer language is in German), but it's not there. I only know when Window updates have been downloaded when I want to shut down the computer and I have the option to either first install the updates, after which the computer will shut down automatically, or shut down the computer without installing the updates.

Just recently, Windows Defender has been displaying an Exclamation Point over it's icon in the system tray. I looked into it and it seems that it wants new definition files.I tried updating the definitions but for some reason it just acts like its trying to update but never does.I'm thinking this may have some thing to do with Windows Genuine Disadvantage.

Long story short here. Running Windows XP Home Edition. Previously had Microsoft Plus! Superpack for Windows XP installed (Movie Maker2 etc.) AND SP2. Everything worked fine. Then victimized by tons of spyware/adware that required I do a complete system restore. Totally fine now. In trying recently to reinstall the Plus! software, I was prompted to download Movie Maker2 from the MS site. Then discovered that to do that I had to update to SP2. Not a problem, I'd done it before without a hitch. Only this time I receive an error message "Access is denied," and it uninstalls itself. What gives?

I'm running Win XP Pro on a Dell Inspiron 8100. The hard drive is partitioned into 2 drives: C and D. C has some Dell stuff, but everything else, including Windows, is on D. When I tried to install an update for SP2, I got an error message that the drive needs 1 more MB of free space. There's only 732KB free on C, but 14GB free on D, so I suspect the update is trying to go to C. Is there any way I can direct updates to D? Or, can the HDD be re-partitioned without losing what's on it?

I ran LiveUpdate on Norton Systemworks 2003. It updated LI only, and asked me to reboot. I did. I also, following some advice I found on TSG during a Google search, switched the Speed Disk service to "manual", as it was causing my HD to work overtime. As it was nearly 1am by then, I went off to bed. My system is protected by ZoneAlarm, Spybot resident, Norton Systemworks with auto updates. I do, however, have a broadband connection and leave the system on at night. I'm running Windows 2000 Pro. Monitor hadn't powersaved. Rightclick had stopped working, clicking on anything in my startbar had no effect, except "start", but that would only bring up the 4 items that would be above 'programs', and I couldn't click on them either. So, I rebooted, and everything worked fine. I was on the system for around 1/2 hour,I went downstairs for breakfast, and when I returned I found it in the same state.

There's an e-mail doing the rounds inviting recipients to download SP3 for XP and on the face of it, giving a web address of windows.com etc. On close examination, the second "w" in Windows is actuall two "v"s and anyone visiting this site is likely to get a nasty surprise. That's why I'm not posting any links and also why I'm forwarding thios posting to a Mod who may care to make it Sticky

Has anyone received a duplicate automatic update notification on Microsoft Malicious Software Tool I had KB890830 installed automatically on 02/14 and then KB890830 (the same number) again on 02/15. I really don't know how good this tool is anyway - now it makes me wonder if Microsoft has a problem with it
