    Hello and pleaase help. attached is a screenshot of TCP view.

    Currently I have no sound, due to malware, and I have been thru the removal process. How is it that even after I uninstall IE that it is still alive and functioning ? Firefox has been my only browser for a year or two. i just don't understand this. Further, IE is also opening a window and displaying advertisements.

    Can I not upload, in this thread ? or did i do something wrong ? thanks

    for my reference.

    It is not possible to uninstall Internet Explorer; that's why it remains on your computer. You do need it to update windows for all those security patches.

    What does the question mark stand for? It is hard to decipher what multiple connections to ? means!
