Virus? Windows Update redirects to msn AND cannot download malware removal tool

Expand Post »
I have found some recent problems with my computer:
1. Microsoft update redirects to MSN.com
2. I cannot download the microsoft malware removal tool -- I get a "page cannot be displayed" error.
3. AdAware cannot update -- it says there is no internet connection -- while I am actually connected to the internet, and the firewall turned off.

I ran Malware bytes (log attached below) and Hijack This (log attached)

Thanks for looking at this!

Re: Virus? Windows Update redirects to msn AND cannot download malware removal tool

Try again also turning off the BitDefender Antiphishing Helper and see if you can get that Windows Malicious Software Tool.

Re: Virus? Windows Update redirects to msn AND cannot download malware removal tool

I tried that in both IE and Firefox and it still did not connect....however, I forgot to mention that I did download it on another computer, ran it, and it found nothing.

Re: Virus? Windows Update redirects to msn AND cannot download malware removal tool

UPDATE....
I have discovered that I cannot download anything from Microsoft's website.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Try turning off Zone Alarm Firewall and see if this makes a difference.
