last nignt i installed windows defendre beta 2 on my daughters laptop after

conecting just fine.)help please
 
This is usually caused by disruption to the winsock stack because of removal
of the malware.

With XP and Service Pack 2, the fix is quite simple--go to a command prompt
and type:

netsh winsock reset

and hit enter.

Then restart.

If you don't have Service pack 2, or if you have Windows 2000--use this KB
article as a guide:

This article is brand new, and includes a feature called "guided
help"--which I've never tried. If you do use this article and use the
guided help feature, I'd love to hear your feedback on it.
