No Internet Connection After Removing Virus
Jan 2, 2012
I encountered a similar problem of no internet after virus removal.
a) IE shows "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
b) MSN and Skype do not seem to respond as well
c) My laptop is connected to a router and I'm able to access other PC on the LAN, but not anything requires internet access
d) The LAN icon on the taskbar shows my PC is connected to both the router and the internet (but internet just somehow doesnt work)
e) Proxy option isn't enabled
f) Booted my Win Vista in Safe Mode with Networking, internet doesnt work as well
g) output from ipconfig seems ok; able to ping gateway ip
h) checked the list of network services posted on this thread; they're all started
i) Removed my antivirus program and disabled windows firewall; to no avail as well
j) MSN repair suggests that there's firewall/ dns issue that causes MSN couldnt connect
k) Both wired and wireless connections used to work; but both not working now
l) Other PCs on the LAN are able to connect to internet

After getting virus and cleaning the system as requested, including all of the registry items not required, I have been unable to get onto the internet.Bad Image Error.I have a Mesh PC, running XP SP3.The motherboard is MS-7207 ver2.I've tried reinstalling the ethenet drivers but to no avail.I can see the network adapter in the control panel and it says the drivers are installed OK.The green light comes on when the cable is plugged in but not the yellow data lamp.I have a second hard drive from an old PC that I reinstalled windows on booted from, I updated the drivers and successfully connected to the internet, which proves all the hardware and drivers do work, but just not on my main hard drive containing my proper windows install.I'm logging this fault on my work laptop as its the only way I can get on line. (My work laptop works at home over the same broadband connection I have used previously.

1) I had Windows XP 2012 Security virus that I removed. The antivirus software also removed afs.sys and afs.reg file, that I repalced from backup. I also copied and merged afs.reg Doing this got me an ipaddress for my PC.
2) I can not connect my wired desktop to the Internet. I can ping the ip address of google.com but not the url. I can also not ping ip address of netgear.com. My laptop has no problem connecting to the wireless network.
3) I ran Winsockxpfix and flushed dns and no luck. [code]

I'm having is I used to have a virus on my computer, until running a number of scanners to get it off. I'm pretty sure it's clean at this point, but now I've ran into the problem of not getting any internet from my ethernet cord. I've tried plugging in another and it gave me the same problem. I've tried running WinSock hoping it was just a registry problem I could fix, but that didn't seem to work. I also tried running "ipconfig /all" in my command prompt and got this error: [code] I'm running Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 2.I'm at the point where I'm considering just reinstalling Windows, but I figured I might as well ask someone who knows better than I do of a better alternative.

My computer's virus protection expired so I Googled a free one and downloaded it without doing much research on it. It contained a virus and now it's disrupting my computer. I ran Microsoft essentials security and found malware and it removed all threats. The virus is disrupting my connection to the Google server. I cannot use google web, images, or mail but I can maps. I tried following the steps suggested here but my host file name is different and contains different information.[CODE]

My desktop got a virus about 1 month ago. Until then my internet connection was working fine. We removed the virus but our internet is still not working. I called my internet provider and we spent hours trying to figure it out and it wouldnt work. So they told me it was the computer. my daughter got a new laptop and we plugged the cable into her computer and the internet worked perfectly. I contacted emachines but they charge me for customer service.

Today I got the Win 7 virus on my laptop and did a system restore under safe mode and downloaded malwarebytes via pen drive from another computer and did the full scan and nothing came up. Computer is now showing nonsigns of the virus but Internet is unable to connect to the wireless. My regular virus protection isn't working well either, it won't let me scan my computer and real-time scanning keeps turning off after I set it on.

I have Windows Vista. So I had a virus that was making it impossible for me to open a web browser without it starting a fake security scan and spamming my screen with multiple browsers. I had no other choice but to do a system restore since I had this problem in the past and a system restore fixed my computer. But, after the system restore, I can connect to the network using a wireless, but when I try to open any browser(firefox/internet explorer) it says internet explorer cannot display the webpage or server not found on firefox. I've tried resetting my internet settings, but no luck. I also don't have an internet security anymore since I was trying to install Kaspersky, but kept having trouble installing it properly.

After running my malware anti-virus and removing all the virus, my Local Area Connection keeps saying network cable unplugged. I checked the network adapters and everything is fine. When I did an ipconfig, there's no ip address showing. I have Windows XP. I've tried almost everything and it's still not working.

I am in the process of selling my notebook computer. I did a fresh install of Windows XP and connected to my home router using my WPA security key in order to get the latest updates before selling it. For security sake, I feel I should remove my security key before packaging up the notebook for shipment. I guess my question is, how do I go about removing my security key from the notebook? Or is this not even necessary

using virus scanner over the network and this is related to my workplace. a pc with win xp can share all drives (including c:) over the network with another pc with win xp as well. let's say pc1 and pc2 (both with win xp). i can scan pc2 from pc1 once i hv shared all the drives. but for win vista n 7, i found out that it is not possible to share c:...yes, there are some ways to share it but the entire c: cannot be shared. n i also know that c: cannot be shared entirely due to security purposes. but can i bypass this only for virus scanning purpose? i know many will juz ask me to install the anti virus on the infected pc, but if possible i want to scan it over the network. if i hv to scan 20 PCs at the same time i find it easier to do it from a single pc than to install the anti-virus at every single pc.

Can your router or even your modem contract a virus? Wouldn't it have to be designed specifically for that router/modem? If it does is there even a way to remove it? I have wondered this for a while, mine doesn't though.

When one sets up a wireless network, do devices that use the Internet wirelessly benefit from increased security because their connection comes through a router? I thought I heard this from a tech podcast. I don't mean security from hacking, such as having a password, etc. I mean that the router itself gives some security from virus.

Desktop running Windows 7 Home Edition and connected by ethernet cable to a Netgear DG834G v2. Dell Inspiron laptop running Windows XP media edition and connected wirelessly and an iMac connected wirelessly.I did not realise until yesterday that even if I shutdown the desktop I can still connect the laptop and Mac wirelessly. I now want to stop using the present desktop and connect a new desktop with an Epson printer which my wife will use on the other side of the room. I will use the present desktop monitor on this new system. Is it easy to set this up? Also I want to remove Windows 7 from the old desktop and install it on the new desktop, will I have to contact Microsoft to do thie?

adding/removing/re-adding a workstation to a domain and Active Directory. We use DHCP at work for our addressing scheme. The problem I had when naming a new workstation the same as the one I am replacing on the domain was that I noticed the new pc with that same computer name as the previous pc was still trying to use the IP address that was assigned to the workstation before by dhcp, so the new workstation was not showing it assigned an IP address. I would try pinging the computer name but there was no reply because it was still showing the ip address of the computer disconnected that had the same name.
- remove the faulty workstation from the domain to workgroup, then restart
- then from Active Directory do I need to reset the Computer name
- then do a ipconfig /release on faulty workstation that has been removed from the domain to release the leased ip address in dhcp
- then disconnect the faulty PC and connect the PC I am using to replace the previous PC
- Name this workstation the same as the one I just disconnected and removed from the domain
-Add this PC to the domain and restart

We have a home network setup. My HP Pavilion AMD Athlon 64 laptop running Vista, shares the printer with an older desktop, AMD Athlon 1600 XP. The printer is hooked up to the older computer that I am getting rid of. I assume I will have to install the software for the printer onto my laptop so I can use it. Is there anything else I should do? Other than removing all the files etc off the old computer.
