general connection problem

Hi guys



I have a problem with my connection to internet, this what happened:

Like a week ago i was attacked by "win 7 antimalware 2010" malware, and i manually removed following this steps
http://www.spywarevoid.com/remove-win-7-an...10-removal.html
when i finished i had a problem with all my programs (sorry didnt save the error code), which I solved creating a new administrator account. The only problem is that my internet conection is down for all (skype, IE 8, firefox, utorrent, etc) except 1 program: KTrader Version 4.00 Build 225 .


i already tried to reinstall windows 7 but it appers an error saying that i have to restart my computer to do the reinstall

Plz i really need help with this I dont know what to do

Hi, two things to try to start off with:

Make sure your LAN/WLAN drivers are up to date (this is almost certainly not the problem but worth doing anyway)

Do a system restore to before your PC was infected.

Post back with any developments.

Maybe not everything is removed!
Run Malwarebytes (free download) in Safe Mode!
Hijjackthis can also be of some help.

Try running AntiMalware Bytes (http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebyte...=dl&tag=button) just to check for any residual infected files for it to remove.

Try Uninstalling then reinstalling all of the above mentioned programs.

Don't format your hard disk yet.

Try opening an elevated command prompt (Search in the Start Menu for CMD, Right click on the first result and click open as administrator)

Type 'netsh winsock reset' without the quotes into command prompt and press enter.

Restart your PC.

Hopefully this will do the trick.
