I have a laptop thats directly wired into a linksys wireless router. i just recovered from some viruses, but mcafee, and some online virus scanners, say i'm clean now. my problem is i can only use the web in Safe mode w/ networking. In normal mode, i can get an ip, but i can't ping anything at all, requests time out. i've tried winsockfix with no success. please help.

If it jacked your PC up that badly, I'd back your stuff up, and reinstall Windows, personally.

Seems like your DNS configurations are different in Safe Mode and Normal mode. Can you ping using an IP address in Normal Mode? If you can, I would look at the DNS configuration in Network Properties-TCP/IP
