Virus or update causing no response to keystrokes

I have just got rid of the Conficker worm and advice said, it's important to keep up with Microsoft Updates.  I guess I had disabled updates updated long ago many things at the same time.  When I came back to the machine, he said updates complete, restart the computer.  On restart I got two blocks of messages "the 654 ordinal not found in the dynamic link library iertutil.dll" - and -"Error loading C:\WINDOW\system 32\iedkcs32.dll the operating system cannot run %1."  I clicked OK on each one and they went and computer seemed to work fine until I tried to sign in my email.  I have no response to the strikes and could not sign.  My mouse has seemed to work move me and I could type in the address bar and in the start menu, run the section for the keyboard works.  So, it is a virus thing or updates caused this?   I have not the slightest idea where to look.  I use another computer to create this message.

I was running from IE7.  When I upgraded to IE8 the problem disappeared.

  • Vista updates causing interference day and PC crashing.

    Greetings,

    I have a tiny little problem. It seems that the new updates for Windows Vista has been causing some intolerable freeze and crash my PC. I don't understand quite updates are causing it. How ever I can officially say that BEFORE I updated my machine it worked almost perfect (except for the graphics). I won't be pesmistic, it really worries me. On top of her crashing and freezing. I also noticed a sufficient amount of gain and loss data. I.E. I have several backups of games on pc before I played. but when I'm done with extracting files and remove approximately "20" of them only '13' will do for the recycling bin, so my (OS - operating system) * HDD partition * wins extra/hidden files. I also noticed that my PC has not been suggested to download SP2 from the Auto Update Center. I had to recover this file manually on the microsoft site. Please explain this problem and please not to recommend a re-installation of the operating system... I have already this is plenty of time to do it either.

  • Windows update caused catastrophic hdd failure?

    I installed the update of windows the other day to return to find the catastrophic hard drive failure. I've never had problems with this computer before. I wonder if anyone has had similar problems. I lost a lot of work, the photos that I'm never going back.

    Is it possible that windows update caused this hard drive failure?

    Hello

    Windows updates won't cause failure catastrophic hdd. In addition, I would like to let you know that hard drives are mechanical devices with moving parts, so they are subject to wear and tear expected. It may possibly do not mechanically at a given time. However, most of the manufacturers branded their product with an average (usually supplied by total number of operating hours). But if a part is defective or there is some manufacturing defects, service life of the drive, a bit more in as little as a day.

    Other factors are primarily external in nature. Mounted sudden power can cause a drive failure, as can cause fire or damage, as well as a number of computer viruses of water. Exposure to high levels of magnetism can disrupt the classic functions of a player, as well as net impacts. If dust gets in a car, it can become a catalyst for an eventual failure.

    Thank you.

  • 82566MM security update causes problem

    I use a network with fixed ip addresses setting and a 300 tinkpad X.

    After installing Intel 82566 MM Gigabit Network Connection update via Windows Update on every reboot

    the default gateway is removed. I can enter it manually in the network settings, but this isn't the way it should work.

    Does anyone have a solution for this?

    Concerning

    Johann

    I'm terribly sorry. Not the NIC driver update caused the problem. The problem came with Vista Service Pack 2.

    I found the following solution and it works now fine again:

    1. open the registry, regedit.exe
    2. go into the path: HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/Tcpip/parameters/Interfaces.
    3. here you must select the CLSID of your network card when you change the settings. You'll probably recognize it watching the IPAddress value which will have IP address for this adapter.
    4. open the value 'Passerelle_par_defaut' of doubleclicking it. You will see a list of all the bridges that disappeared! (maybe in your case it will be single, in my case it was because of the many test multiple addresses) Most likely, the first line will be empty. I don't know how this little flaw can be a big problem. However, if you manually delete the first empty line, click OK and restart your system, everything should be working again fine.

    Hi Randy Gauthier Leclerc,.

    Could you give us the exact error message you get started?
    Are you able to boot to the desktop?
    Were you running any system restore after installing these updates?
     
    If you are able to boot to the desktop, we can edition all updates then install them one by one and check what update causes the update. We can avoid the update conflict by doing this.

    It is a possibility that one of the updates is at the origin of the conflict. I advise you to uninstall all updates and check. You can install these updates one by one, then check update is conflicted and you can avoid this particular update.
    You have installed for a list of the latest updates, follow the steps below:
    1. click on start and in the search bar type Windows Update and press ENTER.
    2. click on "View Update History".
    3. now click on installed updates.
    4. right click on the update you want to uninstall, and then press Ok.

  • Windows Update Causes startup problem

    I have an interesting problem with Windows Update (or apparently is from Windows Update). I am running Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit, if that info is needed. There are two updates I have not install, as I am not sure that is the cause. The updates in question are Internet Explorer 8 and Windows Defender definitions 1.63.604.0. Here's what's happening.

    When you restart after Windows updates, the computer starts with a black screen with a mouse pointer. That's all. Happened every time I tried to start after the pdates. I can reboot into SafeMode very well, is apparently a problem driver or update.

    I also installed DivX on the computer, but it seemed to work as I could watch .avi via WMP thereafter, so I excluded. I thought that if there was a problem with it, it would not have worked in the first place, but I thought it was interesting.

    In any case, the only solution I found doing a system restore and do not install updates day or DivX, since technically I don't know which is the cause. I had to restore the system 3 times already and I didn't continue to do because this computer was very expensive and I don't want to ruin the hardware or something.

    Someone knows something about an error with updates, or perhaps with DivX that may have caused this. The computer works fine without the updates or DivX, I just want to know what could be the real problem so if it is only one of the 3, I can install the other two at least.

    Change your update settings, install the updates one at a time, hide the problem:

    Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

  • Is it possible to reset the date of the last virus and update the spyware definitions in XP?

    I have xpsp3.  I was looking at my calendar to find out what day of the week, an event that happens in November, and unfortunately I forgot to go back to the date of the day before I have updated the definitions of viruses and spyware on MSE.  Now, MSE think my latest definitions of viruses and spyware are obsolete, because they were supposed to be updated three months from now.  So my question is: is it possible to reset the date of the last virus and update the spyware definitions in XP?

    Correct the date on your computer. Remove the antivirus/malware product and reinstall.

    -OR-

    To restore before the update, use the system restore. Make sure the date is correct. Update.

  • Windows Update causes internet connection to stop working

    I installed the recommended Vista updates last night and this caused my internet connection, to stop working.  This has happened to both of my HP laptops.  I was able to work around this problem by going to a previous restore point but worry about future updates, causing the same problem.  Please notify.

    Hello

    Use a wired connection to download the latest drivers or download on another computer
    and transfer them to this one on removable media such as CD, DVD or USB drives.

    Control Panel - device - networks - WiFi - Manager write down of the brand and model, and then double-click
    on the drivers Tab - get the version number. Then double click on update drivers (this can do nothing
    that MS is far behind the drivers of certification). Then make a right click on the device and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it
    will update the driver stack.

    Now, go to the system manufacturer and search for updated drivers, this will be your fallback. Then go to the Site of the manufacturer of the device
    and look for the even more recent drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put the driver - CLICK RIGHT to it - RUN AS ADMIN
    (repeat on the site of the manufacturer of the device)

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • Windows Vista update causes applications non - IE to be denied access to the internet

    I have a laptop Lenovo IdeaPad Y510 unfortunately comes with a Windows Vista Home Premium OS that has caused me a lot of problems with conflicts between her and others, package applications, and now I am forced to use my network at home for route information and documents that must move through the internet by sharing them with another computer Windows XP which is also configured exactly as my Lenovo IdeaPad Y510. I look forward to wean myself off of all MS products, possibly other that MS Office, I use a lot and plays always well for me to wire many years and updates/upgrades. Not the same for MS Windows Vista, however. My experience, similar to many other forum users, has been constantly frustrating over the years I've had to deal with it.  I lost a lot of time dealing with problems caused by code errors in the last set of MS Windows Vista updates that made all my package applications that require internet access unusable.

    I contacted the support of Lenovo and support forums for my problem, and they too cannot provide all the answers that address this issue that is causing me to spend much too much time I could use to work at a rate of $65 / hr, so you can see that this is not only an inconvenience.

    Before someone points me to the myriad other similar positions for possible answers, let me say that I probably have alread read it and tried all the suggested actions, without success. I need to REAL answers and REAL support, and I need it NOW.  Also, I don't think I should have to pay for the support which has been made necessary by the negligence of MS to test their updates for compatibility issues with the popular, free package critical applications for the safety of MS OS system of a user, such as AVG Free antivirus, ZoneAlarm Free firewall personal , OR who are competitors for their navigation on the web or by email client applications. I am not now under the other another firewall that MS Vista firewall having had to uninstall my firewall ZoneAlarm Free. I even had one of my other previously compatible and effective anti-malware/spyware apps, AdAware, uninstall Lavasoft. No matter what I did, which was suggested to me by MS resources support or Lenovo support resources, this problem, which began shortly after the last round of all the months of downloads to fix security and facilities, persists and cost me more money in revenue and lost time every day.

    Hi nancevil,

    First of all, I would say that you perform the clean boot procedure to verify if a third-party program installed on the computer is causing the problem after installing the updates.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    If the previous step fails, then you will need to install the updates in two numbers to see what update is causing the issue and also temporary disable the security software on the computer during the installation of updates.

    Disable the anti-virus software
