      No problem...
      It may be worth a trip to Our Virus and Malware section and follow the info for posting your logs...
      This is a low level infection...however it's designed to not only block Windows Updates but also blocks many A/V protection apps from updating as well as blocking any online scanners...
      Best of Luck...
