Question
How new cpr on dialup get minutes or hours of first updates to security and Windows but no malware in that time window? Happened last time to me. Komando says "malware will hit unprotected cpr in seconds" Would greatly appreciate some wisdom to unwrap this conumdrum. I am mystified.

Answer
You should try Malwarebytes. It is free. You can get it at www.malwarebytes.org
Scan your computer with it. It will detect and remove most all malware. It sounds like you have some sort of trojan. What is Komando?
I have never heard of it.
I use Malwarebytes for detecting and getting rid of malware, spyware, trojans, etc.
I use AVG anti-virus. It is free also. You can get it at www.download.com
