My PC since I uninstalled my old internet security suite (f-secure bundled with my internet connection), screwed up me updating my PC in most ways.

This means any new program I put on my PC, or programs that I had not updated before, will not update, they all come through with the similar error that they could connect me to their server. Yet programs that I update regurely before, update fine now. I posted up a hijackthis log on CCleaner forums when the problem started happening, I was clean. I have no visible proxy, do you have any ideas?

Many Thanks,

Get DjLizard's Dial-a-fix, see if it fixes the problem. :angry:

I had a look at that before, is there a run through on that please, like what to tick e.c.t?

Or, could you tell me what you recommend I should click on it with my sought of problem on this PC?

I'd do the Windows Update one though, so it fixes SSL/HTTPS, etc.

I got your PM but I've decided to reply here.

I have absolutely no clue.

Yeah, checkmark everything in DAF (click the green checkmark button) and go.

:whimpers quietly:

Da world's gonna end, DJ has no idea!!

Oh Woe!!!

All jokes aside, mind letting us know when the problems fixed what caused it?

Cheers :angry:

I will indeed.

Dial A Fix did not sought out the problem unfortuantly, so I am taking Andavari advice from CCleaner forums to destroy all the Backweb keys that F-secure can leave over.

Right, some strange things... Spybot was able to update itself, and when I scanned it said no spyware was found... I then used reg seeker to look for entries, it found many backweb entries, and many f-secure entries, so I "deleted" them. I did another scan just in case and they all popped up again. I went into safe mode, did what i just did, and still the same entries popped up again. I then manually tried to delete the keys, and they all sad there was an "error deleteing the key"...

I have also noticed that for the programs that do not update, they do not even reach my firewall, indeed here is a log of the antivirus update:

This could be because you have incorrect settings, or that you are not connected to the Internet.

Please help.
