    I just used HijackThis and this entry is suspicious:

    O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{389D6342-37C4-4823-9C08-1286474F50A4}: NameServer = 168.95.192.1,168.95.1.1

    I've removed it and my browser failed to connect the internet even if i use ping, it also failed, but my Avira and Superantispyware can connect and update. Also Simpleping works too.

    I've fix my system using Winsock fix. After I reboot, everything is fine.

    The question is, what's that entry? what's that entry done to my system :(

    Thanks!

    You shouldn't be fixing things with HJT unless you have guidance. I suspect that you removed your DNS settings. That would have made you unable to connect.

    You're right but I wanted to know what that line doing before I even remove it? I mean, is it spying my internet or something? I got no idea what that line does :(

    Go to start / run / and type:
    cmd

    At the command prompt, type:
    ip config /all

    That will show you your ip settings.
