I have MSIL/AGENT AY worm in my computer . Worm is creating file in all the folder . I am using ESET nod 32 . I cannot update the virus signature database with latest update version .

What happens when you try to update your ESET?

Is it set to take updates from different mirror/server? if it's set as this , try to remove that and let it update normally from ESET Servers

After the update try to run a deep full scan to your computer

Worms will try to spread through the network , having a firewall would help you also and it could be coming from another devices in your network.

I'd recommend installing all available critical security updates for your OS, changing administrator passwords and running a full disk scan, ideally from ESET SysRescue.

If I update the Signature database version is not changing ,, it is showing the same ,, the mirror file I am downloading from server computer and installed in the client computer,, the worm is in client computer .

It's better to isolate the computers that have the Worm so it can stop spreading , after that you need an up-to-date antivirus that will run a deep scan for these computers so it can take the worm out

Maybe in your case where you cannot update for some reason and cannot select directly from ESET Update servers , try to see what you can do with ESET Online Scanner : https://www.eset.com/us/home/online-scanner/?intcmp=intrw

Here's a guide on using Rufus which most people use to create bootable USB drives: https://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-USB-Bootable . You can download Rufus here: https://rufus.ie/en_US/
