Yeah, I knew the System32 Deletion was not the answer and that it would actually destroy the operating system.
Yes, I am trying to access Win Update through the start menu and I also tried to open it through the Control Panel (in two separate places ...the Windows Update Icon and the Security Center Icon). Each gets the same error. And the only firewall installed is the Windows Firewall which comes with the OS.
Check your hosts file in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc. Open it with Notepad and look for anything suspicious, maybe something with Microsoft or Windows on the line. If it just shows an IP and no host name, copy the ip and paste it into IE or Firefox and if it leads you to a Microsoft website, remove that line. If your hosts file is massive, upload it here and I'll look at it.
XeroBank Browser was the problem. i don't know why, but uninstalling it and rebooting solved the problem.
The new version installed was 2.0.0.14a. The browser is a version of Firefox and, similar to Tor, allows anonymous browsing. I've used it before and never had this problem.
Your welcome... you should send an email to XeroBank support and let them know about this.
