Every time i go to shut my C down it always wants to install 3 new updates ?? been going on since last night, anyone got any idea as to what it is please. Driving me nuts.

Could this have been the source of the problem

 

Last week, Microsoft admitted that it had been forced to rewrite four of its security updates just three days after they had been issued.

Customers had reported receiving repeated demands to install the updates even after they had already done so.

[Andrew]

No idea mate, but i ran malwarebytes and cleared some issues, then installed the updates and it worked ?

The techie bloke at PC world said it was a nasty picked up. He said he and hundreds of other customers had the same carry on, simple fix, mawarebytes and hey presto, zapped and working.

its surprising how often CCleaner and Malwarebytes will resolve the problems of most pc users; add roguefix to that list and your pretty much sorted for most eventualities and clean up routines.
