Q: Scan with web based antivirus program stops internet co..

I am posting this on behalf of a friend who lost his internet
connectivity after scanning his computer with Panda Software's web
based scanner.

She thinks the problem is not with Panda Software but rather something
the virus(es) has done to her system.

She says Panda software found the following:

1- Virus:Trj/Riler.A Disinfected
Operating system
2- Virus:Trojan Horse No disinfected
C:\Documents and Settings\sheila\DESKTOP\May 24, 2004.rar[May 24,
2004.htm]
3- Virus:Trj/Riler.A Renamed
C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SynUSB.dll
4- Virus:Trj/Riler.A Disinfected
C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\WinSSi.exe

I immediately see some questionable things above (for example, why "No
disinfected" and "Renamed", but I am not sure if these are the things
stopping her access.

She needs some guidance as to what to fix.

For example-
-- Could it be the regedit that got screwed up?
-- Are the networking files damaged?
-- Is there something still lurking on the computer?

I suggested that she check the "Hosts" file.

By the way, she is on W2K professional.
She connects to internet with a wireless PCMCI card. She is able to
connect to the wireless network, has good strength, but cannot ping
anything. Her network settings are all there correctly.

Thanks!

Forgot to mention:

She is not getting any error messages. Her wireless adapter sees the
access point. Her settings are not changed a bit. But she cannot
access any web site. She cannot even ping the access point.
