    I'm currently trying to follow the instructions laid out in the READ & RUN FIRST thread but am having trouble connecting to the internet during SAFE MODE. Everything runs fine in Normal Win XP mode, but upon rebooting and not touching anyhing that has to do with my net connection, I got nothing.

    I'd rather not have been a pain in the arse until later when I mentioned my vundo virus ... but it simply wasn't meant to be.

    sorry ... as I reread your READ ME page I see you don't need internet connectivity during the SAFE MODE operations.

    Make sure you are choosing Safe Mode with Networking not just Safe Mode. IF you have dial-up then it won't work as modem are not supported in safe mode. Also DSL that uses a software connection are not support in safe mode. Run the scans in Normal Mode if you can't connect in safe mode.
