Hi, I’m really hoping someone here can help me out. My internet connection on
my main computer has completely stopped working and I don’t know what to do!
I know the line and modem are fine as I’m using them now on a different PC.
However on my main PC they internet seems to connect fine, it shows as
connected, but then nothing works!

Everything was fine until last night when I went to download a free DVD
player for my PC, I used this link:
http://www.download.com/AdvancedDVD...tml?tag=lst-0-5 to download the
programme. However, when I started installing my programmes such as Microsoft
Anti Spyware were telling me it was installing spyware on my pc. So I removed
the items, however ever since my connection has been ruined. I can’t surf the
net or use any download programmes.

I have tried Microsoft Anti-Spyware, Spybot Search and Destroy, Ad-aware,
and AVG anti-virus, and nothing will work!

I don't know if this helps but i was told to do this by someone:

"go to your command prompt (in WinXP go to start->run->type in "cmd")
then typing ipconfig /renew
it's often worth rebooting your modem first.
If you get a message saying "...no operation can be performed on something
that is not a socket" then you have a winsock problem (easily fixed as far as
I know)
microsoft's website should be able to help.
also try re-installing the driver for your network card (or usb driver if
you're connected via USB)"

It said this:

the operation failed as no adapter is in the state permissible for this
operation.

Also, i don't know if this helps but when eMule (file sharing programme)
loads it comes up with the error:

Error: server UDP socket: failed to create server UDP socket on port - the
requested service provider could not be loaded or utilized.

Any ideas? I'm getting so frustrated!
 
You can try one of these..
