This is usually caused by disruption to the winsock stack because of removal
of the malware.

With XP and Service Pack 2, the fix is quite simple--go to a command prompt
and type:

netsh winsock reset

and hit enter.

Then restart.

If you don't have Service pack 2, or if you have Windows 2000--use this KB
article as a guide:

This article is brand new, and includes a feature called "guided
help"--which I've never tried. If you do use this article and use the
guided help feature, I'd love to hear your feedback on it.
