HiDo you have Norton installed on the computer? Jack-MVP Windows Networking. WWW.EZLAN.NET

Hi Jack,No we have McAfee Security. I should tell you the problem started when my son downloaded a program called Hitman because he thought he had a virus. He then cancelled system restore for all drives. He said the program told him to. The computer ran very slowly and we could not connect to the internet although our wireless connection showed "connected". I removed the program, re-enabled system restore; but only restore point avaible was 8:34 last night and we were already having problems. When I checked my connection options, the wireless option no longer showed.
