    Default Internet connection problem

    Help, please!

    My desktop computer is infected with malware, a virus, etc., which prevents it from accessing the Internet.

    I downloaded SpyBot using my laptop and then installing the executable file on the desktop computer. When I run SpyBot on the desktop, it tries to download data files, but of course it can't access the Internet because of the malware, etc.

    How do I download the data files so that I can run SpyBot?

    Thank you.

    For someone to take a look at the system please start a topic in the Malware Removal Forum and a volunteer analyst will advise.

    First see that forum's FAQ which includes instructions in post #2 on how to provide the logs from Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and aswMBR, which are the logs used in the preliminary analysis.
