Re: Can't Load Win/MS Update Pages

The file associations have been messed up due to the malware[s].<<

Before I try to call tomorrow, is there some registry file I can edit
tonight to try and correct the file association problem?

Thanks ...

You won't be able to run anything that ends in .exe and, most likely,
..com nor .bat.

Engel,

I am unable to get to either web site from my daughter's computer. As with
the MS/Win Update attempts, I get an indication that 207.0.0.1 is attempting
to load followed by an IE page failed to load message. I downloaded the .exe
files from another computer to CD, but when I try to install on my daughter's
computer, I get "an error has occured" message with a send error report
option. I'm not sure how to proceed next.

Thanks

I just cleaned out several virus & keyloggers from my daughter's computer and
can no longer access the Microsoft Update or Windows Update pages. She runs
WinXP. One of the viruses was blocking anti-virus software and disabling the
firewall on her computer, and may have also been redirecting access to Win/MS
Update by pointing to another site. Is there a registry setting I can set to
regain access to the Win/MS Update sites? Other web sites load normally.

Thanks,
Bandit292
