Right click on the internet access icon in tray next to clock, select "trouble shoot" problems and follow prompts. What does windows say is wrong?

I seemed to have fixed it last night.  It is connected now.  I unchecked the TCP v6, rebooted, and checked it, rebooted, and then all was fine.  Any way, I think that is what I did.  Something involving the TCP v6 checkbox.  So, all is well.  Now I need to get all those tools removed from this computer.

Thats a strange one regarding your connection, how were those changes done?

OK, lets clean up:

Step 1

Remove Combofix now that we're done with it

• Please press the Windows Key and R on your keyboard. This will bring up the Run... command.
• Now type in Combofix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. (Notice the space between the "x" and "/")
  
  
  
• Please follow the prompts to uninstall Combofix.
• You will then recieve a message saying Combofix was uninstalled successfully once it's done uninstalling itself.

The above procedure will delete the following:

• ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
• VundoFix backups, if present
• The C:_OtMoveIt folder, if present
• Reset the clock settings.
• Hide file extensions, if required.
• Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
• Reset System Restore.

It is very important that you get a successful uninstall because of the extra functions done at the same time, let me know if this does not happen.

Step 2

Remove ESET online scanner: (Got it right ths time)

• Click Start, type Uninstall a Program into the Search programs and files box, and then press ENTER.
  
• Click to select ESET Online Scanner from the listing of installed products, and then click Uninstall/Change from the bar that displays the available tasks. Uninstall ESETonline Scanner, only re-boot if prompted.
  

Step 3

• Download OTC by OldTimer and save it to your desktop. Alternative mirror
  
• Double click icon to start the program.
  If you are using Vista or Windows 7, please right-click and choose run as administrator
  
• Then Click the big button.
  
• You will get a prompt saying "Begining Cleanup Process". Please select Yes.
  
• Restart your computer when prompted.
• This will remove tools we have used and itself.

Any tools/logs remaining on the Desktop can be deleted.

Step 4

Go here http://www.filehippo.com/updatechecker/ run the FileHippo Update Checker, update any applications as suggested by the checker. Ignore any suggested Beta updates.

Step 5

Download TFC  to your desktop, from either of the following links
 Link 1
 Link 2

• Save any open work. TFC will close all open application windows.
• Double-click TFC.exe to run the program. Vista or Windows 7 users right click and select “Run as Administartor”
• If prompted, click "Yes" to reboot.

TFC will automatically close any open programs, including your Desktop. Let it run uninterrupted. It shouldn't take longer take a couple of minutes, and may only take a few seconds.  TFC may re-boot your system, if not Re-boot it yourself to  complete cleaning process <---- Very Important

Keep TFC it is an excellent utility to keep your system optimized, it empties all user temp folders, Java cache etc etc.  Always remember to re-boot after a run, even if not prompted

Let me know if those steps complete OK, also if any remaining isues/concerns...
