When I go to services: Automatic update properties,
at startup type I goto Automatic and then Apply.
At service status I hit Start.
I get:
Could not start the Automatic Update Service on local computer.
Error 1058: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or
because it has no enabled devices associated with it ?
Can anyone help me! |

Y'all systems are infected with malware, most likely a
Vundo\Virtumonde\Zlob variant. Suggest heading over to the OneCare
Safety scanner as a first step:

Next, visit one of these reputable anti-malware forums to ensure that
the system has been disinfected:

Judging by the ever-increasing number of posts here in the past few months
that are similar to yours, the behavior may be due to a Vundo-ZLOB-SDBot
infection, all protected by a rootkit infection.
Unexplained computer behavior may be caused by deceptive software

When all else fails, HijackThis v2.0.2
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.exe) is the preferred tool to use (in
conjuction with some other utilities). HijackThis will NOT fix anything on
its own, but it will help you to both identify and remove any
hijackware/spyware with assistance from an expert. **Post your log to

LINK 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.

When you try to restart you get an error stating " Could not start the
update service on local Computer" Error 1058" error message when you
manually start the Remote Procedure Call service"
First of all ensure you clean out all the malware and viriuses. Than
Follow got Start>run Type in services.msc. Double Click on Automatic
Update. Under General Tab, Startup Type pull down. Select Automatic and
hit apply, got to log on Tab and be sure that the profile is "ENABLED"
go back under General Tab and click on "Start" If you are still getting
same error. follow the proceder below. Be Very carefull here though
Click start Run type in "regedit" without quotation mark. Follow the
path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\(this
where the profile from the above mentioned logon tab will be listed
here) Right click on and select "Permissions" Make sure the POWER USER
and ADMINISTRATOR has the full contol "ALLOW" checked. Than try to
restart the service again......if this did not do the trick Try
assigning Full Control to your USER profile and then try again. it
should do the trick. Good Luck
