I’m trying to install the removal for the Vista Antivirus 2010 virus…….every link that was given on the free download was blocked by this stupid “antivirus virus”. When I try to connect to the internet in Safe mode with networking……it will only connect with limited access aka, won’t connect to the internet. I even tried connecting via an ethernet cord.
HOW DO I GET RID OF THIS STUPID ANNOYING VIRUS?!?!? =((((
Go to the Start menu, select Run and, in the box that appears, type cmd followed by Enter. You should see a command prompt window.
At the prompt, type ipconfig followed by Enter.
If you get successful results (Reply from : bytes = etc etc) then you have a proper connection with the modem.
The next thing is to see if IE can open the modem's configuration page.
Open IE, ignore its messages. In the address bar type http://192.168.a.b where, as before, the a and b are for your modem.
If you successfully get a page then you have a valid web connection. The problem then becomes working out why IE is configuring itself to get beyond the modem.
Note, if you have a valid address but the ping fails, it may be that your PC's firewall is blocking everything when in safe mode.
