Hello,
I am having a serious problem where I cannot open or update anything that protects my computer.

The three programs I use to protect my computer:
AVG Free Edition 8.5.375
Adaware Free Edition AE (recently installed)
Spybot Search and Destroy 1.6.2
Hijackthis (When something serious happens)

I typically use AVG Free edition 8.5.375, it is scheduled for automatic updates and scans. So that is fine, I also try to use adaware but it wont update at all. I uninstalled and reinstalled Spybot and when I clicked on the icon on my desktop it would not even open at all. Hijackthis I can't even open as well, so I cannot give the log of what could possibly be the problem. I also tried to update Windows XP and I couldn't even connect to their update site. None of my protection software will open or update is my problem and I really don't wanna have to reinstall Windows XP to fix everything. Help me please!

The thing is that I have always had these programs and had nothing wrong with my computer. At times I would have a virus or something that screws up my computer, but could fix it. Is there any other way like another program to wipe the virus out? :(

I can't even open the website! Whatever I got wouldn't even let me go on spybot's website either! I have a laptop that I can use and install it back to my desktop...I just installed it and its doing the same thing it won't open on my desktop at all. :(
