On my desktop computer i am unable to access secure sites or *.asp pages and
some programs that access the internet act as if i am not online (cannot
connect to server). I have worked with LinkSys (router tech support),
Comcast (my ISP support), and Vonage (my voice over internet support) and
have not been able to resolve. I have some spyware, i believe, on my
computer that may be causing problems. I downloaded and installed HiJack
This and can post it's log if that can help. Thanks in advance for any
advice or assistance i can receive!

Go through them systematically, doing everything with updated tools in
Safe Mode. There are links at the website to forums where you can post

post logs, pick *one* of the forums and make sure you read its posting
