also can't update

[shamrocks2]

I tried to update and got error 732(0, 0). I haven't checked the forums yet but it seems from what I've read that I have a virus wuauclt.exe.

Thank you

Hello shamrocks2 and

First try noknojon's suggestion(post 3) to see if that fixes the issue, but if not, please use my instructions below

I suggest letting one of the Experts have a look at it to start the cleaning process. It is a FREE service

As we don't work on Malware removal in the General Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Forum as it is for issues with the program itself,

only in the Malware Removal - HijackThis Logs section

Please print out, read and follow the Directions Here, skipping any steps you are unable to complete. Then post a NEW Topic Here

One of the Expert helpers there will give you one-on-one assistance when one becomes available.

Please note that it may take 48 hours or more for you to receive a response in the malware removal forum, as it is often busy at times. Please do not reply to your own post asking for help unless its been more than 48 hours since you originally posted, as this can make it appear as though you are being helped and take longer for you to get help. If no one has replied within 48 hours then please go ahead and either reply to your post or send a private message to a Moderator and let them know that you're still needing assistance.

If you are unable to do all or any of the steps in the link to the directions above, just post your problem into the forum I gave you a link to anyway and someone will be able to assist you.

NOTE: wuauclt.exe

Threat-C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\wuauclt.exe

Legit=C:\Windows\System32\wuauclt.exe

wuauclt.exe Description

wuauclt.exe is initially a Windows Auto Update Client. wuauclt.exe stays resident in the background and checks Microsoft website for the operating system updates. Originally, wuauclt.exe is a legitimate system process that is located at C:\Windows\System32, but there are cases when wuauclt.exe is actually a disguised virus, Trojan or a worm. If you find wuauclt.exe stored anywhere different from its original location, you should get really suspicious and scan your system for possible threats.

Please also follow the instructions from Wide Glide to fully remove any remaining infections -
