Hello, I have been cleaning up my hard drive and updating some programs so I can start using this PC fo webpage building I downloaded a trial for registry mechanic and after I ran the scan in removed some items and said I needed to buy it to remove the rest and now my IE has been jumping to some un solicited PC Cleaner pages, I went to the Microsoft windows update site and tried to update my Front Page software and it told me it was unable to run auto update because some of my settins needed to be started in the services.msc I went through the checlist and started to apropriate programs and went back to auto update, it would start to search for updates and these dialog boxes would pop up saying windows was trying to open a page from IE's trusted sites then when I clicked ok it would shut off the autoupdates in the services.msc list. I think I tracked it down to a (cbXOFwVL.dll) extension in my sys32 file but it won't let me delete it. I tried to quaritine it throuh a security task manager program, I tried to delete it with a program called Locked Files Wizzard, but I just can't get rid of the problem. here is a LOG from Trend Micro Highjackthis:

I have a similar problem. AVG won't update, and Firefox or IE won't let me access the AVG website. When I try to manually update AVG it says connection failed.

I had Trend Micro antivirus for a couple years, but it wasn't able to delete a trojan that slipped through. My friend who is better with computers than I deleted it and installed AVG. If I come up with anything i'll let you know.

You should fo just disabled the services from MSCONFIG

start > run > msconfig press enter and go to startup and disable it from there if you had the name of it and then could of gotten rid of it manually.
