Newnet adware and my firewall

Hello first of all I am new to this place so if this is the wrong spot I am very sorry. I know a little about computers but not a whole lot, I can fix stuff if there are directions ECT.
Well I have had eTrust EZ Armor as my Firewall, Spyware & antiVirus
when I run the Spyware I get this Newnet thing so I have it take it out. after that my internet connection dose not work, Tried all the simple things to see if it would fix, Restarting the computer the the modem dose not work. so I tried turning off the fire wall now I have a internet connection, but in the meantime while the firewall was off Newnet reinstalled its self, so I delete it again and once again my firewall dose not work this time when I deleted the the newnet spyware I deleted it from the reg and the reinstaller, I try turning back on my firewall I lose my connection again but it still says I am connected, so I turn it off, my connection works and the Newnet program dose not reinstall, but I do not have a internet connection enless I turn of the firewall and use the Windows Firewall. what the hell can I do to fix this. Thanks.
