Am using HP desktop with Windows XP and was trying to get on internet to get updates. Services had been altered since apparent spyware or virus was causing problems on desktop where could not click on taskbar since cursor always in hourglass as if something was working in the background. Now, Internet Explorer will not connect to internet although network adapter says connected but only signals sent, nothing coming in. No firewall activated, running through router and cable modem. Router says that signal is fine(lights on), but still no way to get online. I tried reactivation of all services in services.msc and msconfig, but still nothing works. Can’t fix problems on computer with updates and stuff if I don’t have internet connectivity. Computer apparently worked with AOL before, but uninstalled and now nothing works. Any suggestions, would help greatly. Also,when I try to activate all services, some services come up with errors and say that they cannot activate.
