Unhappy Unable to connect to the internet on my Desktop
Well, last night I was Playing an online game I regularly play, and I got up to go call a friend for a few minutes. Came back and I had a lovely case of 'Antivirus System Pro' and my brother thought he could take care of it. So in his attempts to do so, he managed to end a process in the task manager that Apparently Allowed the computer to access the internet.

Now, we can't access the internet on that computer - it isn't a modem issue or anything of that sort, seeing as I'm connected on the same network from this laptop.

But yeah, If anyone is able to help me out with this situation (: please do <3

and Im not the brightest with this computer deal, if you can't tell.

You need assistance from the security pros here, you have to get rid of that thing before we can fix the network.
