Hi,

I recently had a virus that blocked my MBAM from updating, and although I've used several virus programs that appear to have wiped it out, I still can't update my MBAM. Perhaps my system is not as clean as it appears.

Specifically, the error I receive is:

Program_Error_Updating (10045, 0, WinHttpSendRequest)

I'm running Win 7 64 bit and only Avast for anti-virus software. I've already tried to update while disabling Avast and adding MBAM website to my firewall list with no avail. DDS & GMER Rootkit logs are attached. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Hi and welcome to Malwarebytes.

First, let's ensure that all of the malware is gone.

In the future, please post all logs directly into your reply instead of attaching them.

Next, download DDS by sUBs and save it to your Desktop.

Double-click on the DDS icon and let the scan run. When it has run two logs will be produced, please post DDS.txt directly into your reply.

Sure thing -- see the DDS logs below.

Hi,

Next, please run a free online scan with the ESET Online Scanner

Note: You will need to use Internet Explorer for this scan.

  1. Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
  2. Click Start
  3. When asked, allow the ActiveX control to install
  4. Click Start
  5. Make sure that the options Remove found threats and the option Scan unwanted applications is checked
  6. Click Scan
    Wait for the scan to finish
  7. Use Notepad to open the logfile located at C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt
  8. Copy and paste that log as a reply to this topic

Next, download my Security Check from here or here.

  • Save it to your Desktop.
  • Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
  • A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.

Please do the following:

  • Download and run mbam-clean.exe from here
  • It will ask to restart your computer, please allow it to do so very important
  • After the computer restarts, temporarily disable your Anti-Virus and install the latest version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here
    • Note: You will need to reactivate the program using the license you were sent via email if using the Pro version
    • Launch the program and set the Protection and Registration. Then go to the UPDATE tab if not done during installation and check for updates.
      Restart the computer again and verify that MBAM is in the task tray if using the Pro version. Now setup any file exclusions as may be required in your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security/Firewall applications and restart your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security applications. You may use the guides posted in the FAQ's here or ask and we'll explain how to do it.

Let me know how things are running now and what issues remain.

Both ESET and Security Check ran fine. ESET found 6 items, all successfully quarantined. MBAM was wiped clean and then re-installed as instructed, BUT I still can't update it. Same error as before. Perhaps some remnants of the original virus may still be present. Is there a stronger software for removing malware?

Thanks,

Cash

Hi,

My apologies for the delay.

Please reboot to Safe Mode With Networking (tap the F8 key just before Windows starts to load and select the Safe Mode With Networking option from the menu).

See if you can update from there. If no joy, please post a screenshot of the error and I will consult our developers.
