I have wuauclt.exe virus. The update shield stays in the lower right corner at 0%. When windows actually does an update, a different is down there. I can stop the process and delete the files, but they come back in 10 seconds. The files are:

C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch\WUAUCLT.EXE-399A8E72.pf

C:\WINDOWS\system32\wuauclt.exe

C:\WINDOWS\system32\wuauclt1.exe

I have tried, nothing picks them up. If I stop the process and delete them manually, they are back in 5-10 secs.
