And I'm also bombarded with several pop ups too!
Anyone have any ideas?
It doesn't have to be "winupdate" - that's just a common mask for the virus. It is usually the program that is taking up close to 100% CPU (except for "system idle") when you open up task manager.

As with uninstalling LW, have you tried uninstalling it via the ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS in the CONTROL PANEL? The only addition advice i can give is to use the search function on this website to have a look for other answers.

Good luck.
