Okay, I'm on my old desktop computer.

About 15 minutes ago my laptop was working fine, I was on the internet and on stickam.com. I had my chat open and kicked someone out. Minutes later I was disconnected from the internet. My computer still says I'm connected but internet explorer, firefox, aim and msn messenger won't work. I tried to do a system restore but it said it couldn't be completed for an unknown reason.
Do you think I have a virus?
Can someone help me out? I have no idea how to fix it and I can't get it checked out till later.

Please? Thanks. :[

And there is a trojan in the virus vault [I use AVG] and its been there for over a month with no trouble.


For someone to use a trojan you have to be connected to the internet. xD
Go turn your router on and off, see if that works at all.

Hmm..it might just be a bad connection with the wireless and ur laptop...try leaving it off for about 5min and then doing it..or open ur wireless connecticon and try to repair it if there is a button..

yea..try v-scan and if that does not work..what kind of connection do u have?

I've tried a virus scan as well. Nothing.
I'm using wireless right now with my other computer and it works fine, but on my laptop, nothing.
