Vista stopped connecting to ISP

[sirhalloween]

After using SPYBOT search and destroy on a ACER computer with VISTA, a
computer that teenagers had devastated with Lime Wire and other
garbage and was loaded with adwareand 2 viruses, ...


the VISTA system would no longer recognize the Clearwire Internet. Yet
the same computer using LINUX UBUNTU instantly finds the ISP
provider.

Can I restore a VISTA Internet recognition file without a total
reinstall of VISTA?

Two other computers on the same router network work fine with XP and
Windows 2000.

I think Spybot SD deactivated a connection file ????

Your router instructions should give you the necessary information to check
the settings and addresses you need to connect.

Sometimes it is as simple as removing your NIC from device manager and
allowing it to reinstall to restore the network functions.
There are many other ways, but many times that is the quickest.
