to be any advice anywhere on how to repair this problem

I cannot run MBSA version 1 or 2 because I am told that I have a damaged or
missing catalog file, what do I do?

the catalog format changed just recently. get the latest version of
MS-BSA and (re)install it.

You realy need to look for Error messages in your Event Viewer to see what
is going on on your system.

**Scan your computer you look like have a lot of trouble with
malwares/viruses**.
