Have internet or network problems after installing or uninstalling security software or removing malware?

Internet connection problems are common nowadays, especially after removing adware, spyware, virus or worms (malware) from your computer or after installing or uninstalling security programs.

Most of these problems arise because of corrupted Winsock settings. Windows sockets settings may get corrupted due to the installation of networking software, or perhaps due to Malware infestation.

- No network connectivity due to registry errors.
- NS lookup problem.
- Fail to renew the network adapter’s IP address or other DHCP errors.
