I can perform a scan, but before I do, I must state again that I am having trouble updating the database. I allowed it to pass through my firewall but still no luck.

In the meanwhile, I'm having avast! perform a scan.

What error does MBAM give

Download the mbam-clean.exe tool HERE http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam-clean.exe
Then run
It will ask to restart your computer (please allow it to).
Then download and install a fresh copy

Error 732; the same I specified in an earlier post I believe.

avast! quickscan only detected the trojan at the following path; the second problem was gone:

C:\_OTS\MovedFiles\...\api-ms-win-core-l1-1-032.exe ; Win32:Downloader-IQO - [Trj]

Is it safe to quarantine, or does that make a conflict of interest of sorts?

No it is quite safe there

Yes, I have. Installation successful; it is now fully up to date. Quick or Full Scan?

Hah! Okay. Quickscan found one trojan, but it is not the same. It is Trojan.BHO [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.fsharpproj.

Quarantined successfully. All else is clear. Any further instructions?  ;D

Nope as that was an orphan - run for a while until you are happy, then let me know and I will remove my tools
