Internet access in safe mode only

by mj_consult . Updated 16 years, 11 months ago

I can not access the internet in normal mode but I can in safe mode. This is small office net with three systems connecting to internet through Linksys BEFSR41 router to cable modem. The system in question is running Win XP SP2 and can communicate with the other systems in the p2p net and the other systems access internet normally. I have used msconfig to set up a minimum configuration (diagnostic mode) and still not able to access internet. I have reinstalled adapter, network configuration, etc. still no luck. I’m out of ideas.
Background – system had virus/trojan which corupted program files including some system files (XP SP1). I cleaned the virus and installed an XP SP2 upgrade and all worked except internet access.
