Yes i had spyware removed thanks to Bananafanafo.

My problem is With Aim, the latest version. I can install it just fine and run it, but when it comes time for it to connect. It wont. I gives me a message saying, that it cant connect. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but it didnt work. I have also noticed that Napster, any P2P software does not work.

what might be wrong?

oh and i do have internet access.

oh and if this helps, i just found out that if i go into safe mode with networking, i can connect to aim, and my other appz. why would it be doing that?

what antivirus are you running? aslo are you running any firewalls like zone alarm for example?

ok, I haven't forgotten about you. just seems like something left over from the spyware is still present.

ah... I see. run hijackthis again and delete the followin entry:

O23 - Service: TrueVector Internet Monitor (vsmon) - Zone Labs Inc. - C:\WINDOWS\system32\ZoneLabs\vsmon.exe


if you are running zonealarm intentionally still you will need to go into the applications section and set aim and your p2p program as allowed.
