In the past I've been using media sharing programs such as limewire and mp3rocket, which suddenly caused me to have many popups ending with the extension 'muon.html'. I got rid of the 'muon' virus using ad-aware but it resurfaced again shortly after.

Lately I can't connect to my internet as the default gateway is missing. When I try to 'repair' it, I get a message saying that the repair failed as my IP address can't be reconfigured. When I attempt to run cmd.exe or ipconfig, a message appears saying that another program is currently using those two files. Also, my task manager doesn't appear anymore. It only appears when on occasions my computer restarts but nothing appears on my desktop and I press crtl+alt+delete.

I ran a hijackthis log on my windows XP and transferred it to an apples computer via a USB drive.

I downloaded ewido, but I can't update it since my internet isn't connected (the default gateway is missing).

I also tried putting my computer into safemode, but there were complicatios as the desktop won't load and my screen remained black.

Do I just proceed with ewido under normal mode?

[pomp]

You update ewido in normal mode...then go into safe mode and run a scan with ewido....

[artsyfartzy]

Sorry if I'm unclear, but what I'm saying is I can't even update because I can't connect to the internet since my default gateway is missing (a problem with renewing the IP address..which in turn needs to be fixed on cmd.exe, which isn't even working).

And when I try to do safe mode, it won't let me log in.

[pomp]

Ok..

When you are in cmd .. what are you typing in to renew the IP... it should be ipconfig /renew

Try that..

[artsyfartzy]

Well, it said 'An error occured while renewing interface Wireless Network Connection: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket".
