Well , i got this update again ( Even though i already had it installed 3 days ago ) but after doing the steps you told me to do 

it's asking me to update again and it was downloading the updates

 

i went on and disabled the "Windows Update" Service so that it stops downloading them and it did...

 

The question now is : should i download the updates or should i do not download the updates ?

Ok, thanks.. We still need to clean up...

 

Download "Delfix by Xplode" and save it to your desktop.

Or use the following if first link is down:

"Delfix link mirror"

Double Click to start the program. If you are using Vista or higher, please right-click and choose run as administrator

Make Sure the following items are checked:



  •    
  • Remove disinfection tools
       
  • Purge System Restore <--- this will remove all previous restore points and create a fresh point relative to system status at present.
       
  • Reset system settings



Now click on "Run" and wait patiently until the tool has completed.

The tool will create a log when it has completed. We don't need you to post this.

Any remnant files/logs from tools we have used can be deleted…
