When I try to update MSAS I get a "cannot connect to the internet" error.
How can that be? Eveything else connects just fine. I shut off ZoneAlarm
and still get the error.

Is your Internet Explorer set to work off-line or on-line? Please check in
the File menu of Internet Exporer - the "Work off-line" option should not be
checked.

I.E. is set to work online although I'm now using Mozilla (as the default).
After removing another Trojan MSAS started up update itself and connected
OK.

Glad to hear this.
Would you say what trojan blocked the MSAS, anyway?

One called Virtumonde. :-(

I'll write down the names and the dlls from now on.

I've had some trouble with that as well. I cleared it up by fixing my Zone
Alarm NOT to handle the email protection which seems to be a blockage to
efficient running of Outlook Express. Seems not to be a problem with Firefox
at all. Very strange.
