If you have been infected with the above, and can't connect to the internet,
is a workaround possible by downloading from another computer, and putting
on CD?
Another solution?
 
First, if you don't have WinXP SP2, get LSP-Fix - a free program to repair
damaged Winsock 2 stacks
http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm
save it because you might need to repair the Winsock 2 stacks after removing
the culprit.
For WinXP SP2 this command will restore the Winsock stacks if you can't
connect after clearing the malware.
Go to Start | Run and type
CMD
In the command window type
netsh winsock reset

Then get CWShredder

I have the same problem and have run Norton antivirus, Microsoft antispyware,
PestPatrol and Spybot and I still not have gotten rid of aboutblank. I have
also tried system restore as per dell and that will not work either.
