Another error 1058/80070422

I have read and followed previous advice on here about this, but the problem
still exsists.

I do have Vundo, is the first step getting rid of it, before evening trying
to get the auto updates to work?

If so what is the best way to do it?

I have tried the various free-scans/HJT/Spy bot etc........

Many thanks.

Sorry, I have Windows XP SP2 and was using AVG as my virus scanner.

Run a /thorough/ check for hijackware, including posting your hijackthis log
to an appropriate forum.

When all else fails, HijackThis v2.0.2
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.exe) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with
assistance from an expert. **Post your log to
http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22,
http://castlecops.com/forum67.html,
http://forums.subratam.org/index.php?showforum=7,
http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30, or other appropriate forums for review
by an expert in such matters, not here.**

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.
