Okay, I've got a weird situation. I keep my computers pretty clean. I have 2 desktops and a laptop. The desktops are connected with ethernet cables and the laptop is wireless (just got wireless modem yesterday). All run Win XP Pro SP2. All completely updated. The first computer is the oldest, 2001 and is a 1.2 ghz AMD. I recently installed MS Defender on it and it found two pieces of spyware, Broadcast Urban Tuner and Gigex Speed Delivers. I cleaned them. Now I can't access the internet on it. I've run HijackThis and don't see anything keeping me from accessing the internet. What do I need to fix? Not sure what other info you need but I'll give it.
