DIsconection prob

HI i dont know if i should post here or in the security forum so pls move if it is the wrong place.

My problem is, just recently when i am surfing suddenly no web pages open etc ..
i disconect and reconect it conects but then again nothing works!

ok so i obviously thought virus, spyware etc so i scaned my computer with
AD-ware and spybot adware finds a few enteries delete them, no help.

my anti virus is pccillin internet security 2005 scan no virus it has a spyware scan as well and there, it finds this ''ADW_BADITOR.A'' i cleaned it and a few days later it finds it again could that be the problem? CLick here

i tried to scan in safe mode adware and spybot dont find anything and for some reason pccillin dosent work in safe mode. any ideas on that ?

PS i am running xp pro SP2 with an adsl connection.








thanks in advance

Please wait more than an hour and a half before bumping a thread. Someone will help you when they find it.

Open a command prompt and type IPCONFIG/FLUSHDNS

Google for "winsockxpfix", download it, and run it. It fits on a floppy.

Look in your add/remove programs for anything that says lop or ezula - and remove it.

Are you using any firewall?
I found that sometimes for some unexplainable reasons
explorer won't open any web pages. It was due to
my firewall(Zone Alarm) blocking EXPLORER from accessing
the internet; reenabling access fixed my problems.

No it was not the firewall because when i restart there was no prob.and then again all of a sudden it blocked again. i think it was a spyware.
i followed glc's advice and for the time being evrything is fine..

Just that my anti virus wont work in safe mode...i am hoping somone will tell me why.
