BleepingComputer.com: Help with Virus/worm blocking anti virus and microsoft

I have an XP pro laptop that gets alot of use sometime ago it stopped accessing Microsoft sites and i have been having issues with other software. So I have decided i need to try and fix it and am struggling I tried various things like using another machine to download AVG to a USB drive but it cant update.

Thanks hamluis

first of all in this case you do not want to use avg if you are already infected clear avg off the flash drive and put on malwarebytes antimalware now if you can't run it in normal mode then try in safe mode (reboot the system and keep pressing f8 softly untill it shows you a menu) now if this does not work then you may have to wait for someone who is part of the MRT (malware removal team) to help you

Oddly just put USB into other machine (which has Mcafee) and Mcafee reported it had detected W32/conflicker.worm!inf so i guess that the problem?

try to get macafee to remove it then clear any other files on the usb then put on malwarebytesantimalware installer found at malwarebytes.org

I have Malware bytes now running on infected machine thanks for the help, hope it does the trick!

Good luck and once its done scanning please post the log on here by copying and pasting the text inside the log onto here

been going 30 minutes nothing yet should i be worried?

keep waiting

Ran MCafee on the USB drive and got W32/Conficker.worm.gen.a on it if thats any help

you can boot into safe mode and thats good

Sorry i think i am confused that was on the uninfected machine, infected machine still running antimalware

OK progress is slow but Malwarebytes has found 2 infected items so far, should i put the log up here?

When it finally finishes (1h14min so far)

EDIT: just finished found 3
Worm.conficker c:\Windows\system32\02.tmp
Worm.downadup c:\WINDOWS\system32\outmjk.dll
KoobFace.Trace c:\WINDOWS\mmsmark3.dat

What should i do now? "remove selected"?
