Windows Explorer and IE, Media player "error has to close" - Safer Networking Forums

Hi there, for the last week or so I'm unable to open IE, Windows Media Player and I get an error saying Windows Explorer has to close and also the "Java Updater" has to close.

In fact many .exe files will not open.

Below is HT file.

Hi Blade, thanks for responding.

I downloaded Kaspersky Virus Removal with no problems, but when I ran setup, It came up with a folder showing the following, see attachment, not really sure what to do. Thanks again for helping

Hi Blade, Tried that, nothing happened

Let's try to create a few more logs. Download DDS and save it to your desktop from here or here or here . Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds.scr to run the tool.

When done, DDS will open two (2) logs: DDS.txt Attach.txt Save both reports to your desktop.

Post them back to your topic. Download GMER here by clicking download exe -button and then saving it your desktop: Double-click .exe that you downloaded Click rootkit -tab and then scan.

Don't check Show All box while scanning in progress!

When scanning is ready, click Copy .

This copies log to clipboard Post log in your reply.

Hi, Please download exeHelper to your desktop. Double-click on exeHelper.com to run the fix. A black window should pop up, press any key to close once the fix is completed. Post the contents of exehelperlog.txt (Will be created in the directory where you ran exeHelper.com, and should open at the end of the scan) Note: If the window shows a message that says "Error deleting file", please re-run the program before posting a log - and post the two logs together (they will both be in the one file).
