PC cannot connect to wireless network [RESOLVED]

Hi everyone,

I have been posting on the networking forums, trying to get my problem fixed.

Here is the thread:
http://www.geekstogo...rk-t205841.html

In summary, I have a PC connecting to a wireless router, and one day just stopped connecting.

Titan, who was helping me, recommended I see you guys.

I followed the pinned "Malware Cleaning Guide" as best I could, however there was one step I couldn't do.
I was unable to successfully download Malwarebite's Anti-Malware software. The problem is that the software would not install on the PC unless it could connect to the internet to get the latest update. The other computer in the house (the one I'm using now) is a Mac, which is not compatible with the software.

So instead of running the Malwarebite software, I downloaded the latest version of Ad-aware, transferred the .exe file to the PC, and did a scan (no major bugs were found)

But I was able to follow the rest of the steps. I restarted after I was finished, but unfortunately still couldn't connect.

Here is my Hijack This Log, followed by the uninstall list:
