Hi,
I am not sure if i have a virus, spyware or malware, or if i have just stuffed something up.
I have just bought and installed Zonealarm internet security suite (because i thought my pirated anti virus was abit sus). The installation went fine on my main computer and also on my Kids computer. But when it came time to update the patern files my computer said that it could not connect to server. The kids PC updated fine.
So i went on to the Kerspersky site to do a remote scan and it failed to update as well. Then i installed spyware doctor and the same thing it says that it cannot connect to the server to complete the installation.
My internet and email are all working fine. And i have just realised that windows update is not working as well as World of Warcraft downloader is not connecting as well. So it would seem that any program updater on my computer is not working.
Does anyone have any ideas???

Cheers,
Steve.

P.S i work away so i probably wont be able to respond to anything for a week or 2.
