  • cannot open .exe files, add/remove files works do not (not too long on a computer far away)

    Help me Obi Kenobi won, you're my only hope. (Sorry, has.)

    I got a virus called XP 2010 antivirus, who kept asking me to buy their software. I did a security analysis of microsoft online, which didn't seem to help. I noticed that I am still unable to open wordpad, notepad, etc... Also unable to do a system restore (giving the window "choose the program you want to use to open this file. ("File: rstrui.exe").

    The same basic "choose program" window opens for almost everything on my computer, including Mozilla Firefox, all my antivirus software (including those suggested I download to fix this), add/remove programs, and I imagine many other programs just yet, I have to try.

    I tried to open "My computer" once and my computer to freeze to the origin. I once again and used ctrl alt del to see my process of and noticed a caled "cinemanowsvc.exe" process was running and associated with a software movie I got... so I told him to stop this process of visualization, and after doing so could open 'my computer '. I suspect that the virus may be in the cinemanow program and want to remove it... but I'm also not sure if this is my problem.

    A lot of the tabs on the lower bar, near the clock seem to be missing, and the computer seems to restart very slow... I have UBUNTU (almost Linux) on my hard drive that is partitioned and UBUNTU seems to have dropped the event.

    If you could help, that would be the most awesome of you!

    Note: I have also tried to open my software in safe mode, but I am unable to do so.

    It is difficult to tell exactly how much damage has been done to the system and whether or not it is worth trying to fix or start over.

  • Windows Server Update service does not work after the installation of KB2720211

    I have a Server 2008 SP1 32-bit Standard, which had the role of Server Update for the Windows software installed connected to a WSUS upstream server and everything worked, with 17 clients connected to him and get everything their approved patches.  It was a new server starting with WSUS added at this time 1 months ago.  He had to be upgraded to SP2 S2008 which I did and WSUS have continued to function.  After being on SP2, there was another 152 patches to be applied and after that WSUS does not work anymore.  It appears 1 patch that has been applied has been KB2720211 that seems to cause problems for a number of people.

    The problem is that the update service does not start.  An error message comes back that the service has not responded in a timely fashion and I can't find the log files anywhere on what it is.  Here is what has been done so far all that in the same issue:

    1 deleted WSUS and restarted and installed it again.

    2 Remove WSUS and Windows Internal Database, restarted and installed it again (using the download of KB972466).

    2.1 install SQL Management Studio and logged to an internal database SUSDB and checked it is not set to single user (I believe it is set for multiuser name but I'm going from memory)

    3. install the KB2720211.

    4. installation KB2734608

    5 remove WSUS and Windows Internal Database, restarted and installed it again (using the download of KB972466).

    I am looking for any information on how to solve what is the question, because there is nothing in the log files I can find and no event in the windows event viewer.  I am ready to start with the server however if there is something I can look at to possibly solve the problem, please let me know.
