To recap... the computer uses XP and could connect to the internet before the scans were done ..but on every search it would lead you to the same page.
The browser is Internet explorer, the internet will work when connected to a different machine. on this computer it says it's connected but it's not receiving.Open HijackThis and select Do a system scan only then place a check mark next to:

- O2 - BHO: (no name) - {11904ce8-632a-4856-a7cc-00b33fe71bd8} - (no file)

A malicious .DLL file is disrupting the LSP chain on your computer. We need to get rid of it.

  • Please download LSPFix
  • Run the LSPFix.exe that you have just finished downloading.
  • Check the I know what I'm doing box.
  • In the Keep box you should see one or more instances of rsvp32_2.dll
  • Select every instance of rsvp32_2.dll and move each one to the Remove box by clicking the >> button.
  • If the rsvp32_2.dll file only appears on the right sid then just click fix checked and close the program.
  • When you are done click Finish>>

----------
Download Dial-a-Fix by djlizard, save it to the desktop then extract it to it's own folder.
  • Open the folder and run Dial-a-fix.exe
  • 2 windows will open. Close the one in the background labeled Restrictive Policies
  • Check the box in section 1, Empty temp folders.
  • Check the box in section 2, Fix Windows Installer.
  • Check the box in section 4, labeled SSL/HTTPS/Cryptography. The 4 boxes under it should be pre-checked
  • Check all boxes in Section 5, labeled Registration Center.
  • Click Go
  • OK any error messages if received, but write them down and post them here.
  • Restart the computer when done and then post a new HijackThis log.
.
Also let me know how everything is now?Thanks Evilfantasy...
I just followed all the steps you gave.
All went well until the scan onDial-a-fix...the last 2 bowex didn't clear in No. 5 Registration center --Explorer / IE / OE / shell / /WMP and --object linking libaries (OLE)
In the scan itself it stops at --Registering imgtil.dll


Any ideas? Try this.

Download to your desktop FixPolicies.exe, a self-extracting ZIP archive from HERE.

Double-click FixPolicies.exe.
Click the Install button on the bottom toolbar of the box that will open.
The program will create a new Folder called FixPolicies.
Double-click to Open the new Folder, and then double-click the file within: Fix_Policies.cmd
A black box will briefly appear and then close.
Restart the computer so the changes can take effect.

How is everything now?

I meant to get back to you sooner but had to go to work.

This is what I did..
I canceled the Dial-a-fix scan and it said it had crashed so I scanned again. It went all the way through that time. I restarted the computer and it connected to the internet no problem. They only wierd thing is the home page "Google" has boxes where it should have text but I can move from there with out any difficulty.

Are there any more steps to follow?Yes theres more, we needed to get the connection fixed so it will be easier.

Download ComboFix by sUBs from one of the below links. Be sure top save it to the Desktop.

Link #1
Link #2

**Note:  It is important that it is saved directly to your Desktop

Close any open Web browsers. (Firefox, Internet Explorer, etc) before starting ComboFix.

Temporarily disable your antivirus, and any antispyware real time protection before performing a scan. Click this link to see a list of security programs that should be disabled and how to disable them.
 
Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
When finished ComboFix will produce a log for you.
Post the ComboFix log and a new HijackThis log in your next reply.

Important: Do not mouseclick ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

Remember to re-enable your antivirus and antispyware protection when ComboFix is complete.here is the Combofix log
