Avast will not block incoming as they are probably just probes and are of no import, if your system is up to date

I used to run it with auto-updates off. What do you suggest me to do?

I would always recommend that windows and Avast auto updates are turned on

I am running another one similar to this at G2G where the only programme reporting a problem is MBAM

I have found no malware on the system - and I used all my tools.  Yet the site that MBAM was blocking is squeaky clean (now) a few years ago a spammer operated from the server hosting service but it was shut down

Subject to no further problems   :)

I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems 

Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean  :thumbsup:

A good workman always cleans up after himself so..The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset  System Restore points:

Run OTL
  • Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following
    Quote
    :Commands
    [resethosts]
    [emptytemp]
    [CLEARALLRESTOREPOINTS]
     [Reboot]
  • Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  • Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
Remove ComboFix
  • Hold down the Windows key + R on your keyboard. This will display the Run dialogue box
  • In the Run box, type in ComboFix /Uninstall
     (Notice the space between the "x" and "/")
    then click OK



  • Follow the prompts on the screen
  • A message should appear confirming that ComboFix was uninstalled
Run OTL and hit the cleanup button.  It will remove all the programmes we have used plus itself. 

We will now confirm that your hidden files are set to that, as some of the tools I use will change that
  • Click Start.
  • Open My Computer.
  • Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
  • Select the View Tab.
  • Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Do not show hidden files and folders.
  • Click Yes to confirm.
  • Click OK.
   Your Java is out of date.
Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system.
Please follow these steps to remove older version of Java components and upgrade the application.

 Upgrading Java:
  • Go to this site  and click Do I have Java
  • It will check your current version and then offer to update to the latest version
Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programmes:

Malwarebytes.

Update and run weekly to keep your system clean

Download and install FileHippo update checker and run it monthly it will show you which programmes on your system need updating and give a download link

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated. To keep your operating system up to date visit To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read our little guide  How did I get infected in the first place ?Keep safe  :wave:

I did everything you just writed, just few more things.
MalwareBytes keep spaming the notify window, this time theres outgoing's too, as incoming's also.

When i press Start, then Turn off Computer, the Turn Off button keep showing tthere is update to install, no matter if i did turned off and it installs it. When i turn on, it shows the same.

Also if i allready have the program, but there is newer version and i download it, it gets replaced by its older one, and there is no need to uninstall, right?

Oh and, a little dumb and lazy question but..how to turn the firewall? I wanna make sure its ON.

Do you have the KB number for this ? A pound to a penny it is a dotnet update

The majority of the time the programme will either overinstall or remove the older version

Link, if possible please

What notify window ?
The one that pops-out top of all minimized icons (near the clock), what does 'incoming' and 'outgoing' means?

Thank you for the heads to the Firewall, it was Off

Does Malwarebytes indicate what programme is responsible ?



Go to windows updates
Once it has completed the scan then on the left select Review your update history
Look for the failed updates
Make a note of the KB number as illustrated

Cant update due to error 0x8007007E, found a solution but requires me to scan my PC and replace all broken files and eventualy after that to reach the update page that you linked. The scan requires my original XP Professional CD and i cant find it..
