> I am using Avast free and MS security essentials

You should have only one (1) anti-virus application installed and loading at
boot. You have two (2). Uninstall Avast or MSE & reboot...THEN check-in at
Windows Update again because the computer still isn't fully-patched (and
hasn't been for two year or more).

NB: If you got infected while you had AVG installed, see...

Can I install Microsoft Security Essentials [or any other
anti-virus/anti-spyware application] to clean up my already-infected
computer?
