    A week ago, TimW cleaned my computer from the Black Internet Virus. About two days ago, my internet went spotty. My computer tells me I'm connected but when I load a page, it simply times out. My drivers are fine and my connection seems to be ok as well. Right now, my internet seems to be working fine, but at times will time out or pictures will not load while the rest of the page will. I will call my ISP but wanted to make sure it wasn't some malware.

    Here are the logs.

    Your logs are still clean. But what is this:
    C:\7ka114ww.exe

    You appear to be having an issue with your DNS settings.

    If a URL ( like www.google.com ) does not work. Do an IP address look up and try using using the IP address ( like 74.125.95.103 ) instead. If the IP works and the URL does not, it is a sure sign of a DNS problem.

    TimW,

    Thanks for getting back to me.

    That file is an update for my audio driver. I d/l it a couple of days ago.

    I'm not sure as to what you mean in your last step. Could you clarify? Sorry for the trouble.

    Type into your browser address bar this> 74.125.95.103

    It should then take you to Google. If it does, then you are having a problem with your DNS settings.

    Either way, you need to pursue this in the networking forum.

    Thanks, TimW.

    Taking this to the network forum as the numbers sent me to a google page.
