After much wrangling, Riggy was given a procedure that removed that yellow nagging shield in the system tray. Microsoft's Patch Tuesdays the second Tuesday of every month are an important part of every user's regular Windows operating system maintenance. In fact, regular fixes, patches, and updates should be part of every user's regular routine, no matter which operating system they use.
But sometimes Windows XP gets stuck in update mode. It will continue to show the flashing yellow shield in the System Tray suggesting you need to download and install important security patches. Windows may even display a chat bubble reminding you there is a system patch available. This may appear even after you have already applied all the patches -- Windows just doesn't recognize its current status. This procedure forces Windows to reset the files that track what updates you have installed.
This means that the automatic update will stop nagging you to update even though you already have. For Riggy, this procedure means Windows will stop trying to download and install SP3. Completion time: ComboFix-quarantined-files.
Let me know if there is anything else, thanks for all the help so far. Hi, era55dd Copy the entire contents of the Quote Box below to Notepad. Name the file as CFScript.

I have a Lenovo Laptop and it did come with pre-installed Mcaffee, which I did not activate and subsequently uninstalled. This laptop has not updated since May this year and I keep going around in circles on these forums trying to find someone who has successfully cured it -without re-installing. Nothing has been installed since May either. Threats include any threat of suicide, violence, or harm to another.
