when installing yahoo msngr on my laptop , tea timer asked me if i wanted to allow or deny changes to my registry. At the time i was in a hurry and upset and made an uninformed bad decision. I allowed some and denied others. Afterwards i could no longer access the internet. I have tried several solutions, and this has been going on for weeks so i have lost some of the specific details.


List of attempted fixes that did not work:
Basically i tried to uninstall and reinstall yahoo msngr.
Reinstall internet explorer 8.
Nothing in spybot black or white list to allow or deny processes.
Spybot log did show the registry changes that i did not allow(specifics lost now)
Uninstall spybot.
Repair internet connection.
yada yada yada.




any help would be greatly appreciated. there has got to be a simple fix here.
