Activeplus? Thats an MSN Messenger add-on pack.. hmm.
MSN toolbar, youknow these things may/may not cause your problems.

DUDE, you have a VIRUS! The Cirebot!

DO NOT TRY TO REMOVE THESE YET!

Follow the instructions on this site:
Symantec Security for removal.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [system] dcomx.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [system] dcomx.exe

Thats why you couldn't get on windows update, Cirebot uses the RPC exploit of windows. That exploit can be patched, from windows update.

Problem ... my Norton Anti-Virus subscription ran out a few months ago and I didn't renew it, so I can't do Steps 2 and 4 in the removal instructions. I still Norton on the computer, so it shows up on the list, but I can't use the Norton Internet Security (althouth the Norton Auto-Protect still works).
