Windows XP home SP2 (had SP3 but installed because of problems) on a home wireless network

Well, Its infected with spyware etc, spybot S&D and adaware couldnt remove it, I tried restarting in safe mode and manually deleting some of the files to no avail. Only get popups when I am surfing the web. The thing that got me is that I think it is preventing me from PERFORMING windows update, updating windows defender, and preventing me from TURNING the windows firewall on. It says its controlled by group policy and I havent set up a group policy. Tried to find solutions and went run/services.msc and there wasnt anything there about the group policy. Tried turning updates, firewall and security center on from services and WOULD automatically stop them after I started them.

After running the steps, I havent had a pop up.... yet, but am still not able to run windowns firewall

[attachment deleted by admin]Well, I don't see a firewall, which needs to be corrected. Unless you have a suite package of Avast (not just anti-virus), then you need to get a good firewall on your computer. I suggest Comodo, ZoneAlarm, or Kerio Sunbelt. Download one, disconnect from the internet, disable Windows Firewall, install your new one, and restart.

Other than that, things appear to be okay. How is everything running now? Are you still experiencing problems?Things are running much much smoother now.... thanks for you help man, and Ill get that firewall downloadedGreat, and while you're at it, go ahead and uninstall ComboFix. To this, simply go to Start > Run and type in combofix /u (note the space) and click OK.

You should also clear out your System Restore points by turning it off and then turning it back on...
