Default Computer wont connect to the internet anymore

I recently installed an antivirus program. It is called Kaspersky. My computer is using a wireless router for Comcast Cable. Well, when i first used Kaspersky, It found a few files that it said i should get rid of called New Dot Net Domains. And I deleted them, and now my computer will not connect to the internet. I have tried just about everything, system restore, uninstalling Kaspersky, Etc. Any ideas on what to do?


By the way, Im using Comcast Cable with a Linksys Wireless router.
And the computer im using now is another one in the house that connects to the internet fine.

Oh yeah, I reinstalled Kaspersky, and did a full scan, and no viruses.

You may want to read this:

Apparently NewDotNet is maleware and acts as a BHO. Also modifies winsock registry keys which by deletion of the NewDotNet domains caused some type of malfunction in the winsock.

Anyway, the explanation is in the link.

Hope this helps.

I don't know what firewall you're running but a free version of ZA blocks internet access after signing off for a while and then trying to reaccess. The temporary fix is a reboot.
