Don't have an AV installed? Use this highly recommended free one:

(Click the “Get AVG Free for Windows” link at the bottom, then click the download link.)

Don't have Anti-Spyware installed? Use one (or all!) of these free programs:

3. Make sure your Windows is fully patched and upto date.
Visit the MS update site to check: http://www.windowsupdate.com/
4. Finally, you can now check if it's working. If not, switch your modem/router off (ie, turn off the power) and leave it for 5 minutes. Go make a cuppa or something. Then switch it back on.
5. If it's still not running, assuming that you haven't changed any settings in your modem/router, go through the Networking Wizard under Start > Control Panel > Networking
6. It's screwed. Throw it away and start again  |
