Cannot get access to the internet
jraju:
Hi, Shane ,
Did you see my link?. Bitcomet downloader explains you will only receive half of the internet functions.
If you are connected to the Internet through a wireless modem (usually a USB stick) which uses mobile phone wireless telecommunications technology (such as GPRS, EDGE, EVDO, HSPA, UMTS, etc.) most likely your Internet connection will be firewalled at the ISP site by default (so you basically get only half of an Internet connection, without the possibility of successful incoming connections). Short of contacting your ISP to ask if there is a possibility to get full Internet connections on the same device or changing your Internet subscription plan for one that has incoming connections unfirewalled by default (all xDSL, cable or FiOS providers usually offer unfirewalled connections), there is nothing you can do on your side to unblock incoming connections, therefore there is no point in following this guide or any other port-forwarding guide, for that matter, because you will still have incoming connections blocked on all your ports!

This problem is with bitcomet though and has to do with his browsers.
rhuffman, did you download teamviewer on another system and put it on your troubled system and see if it is will get online? I want to see if I can connect to it and take a look :-)

I think rhuffman is just using bitcomet as an alternative means of connection as the original problem was that Citadel was being broadcast from his IP address on one computer.

Hi, Boggin
Let me know what is the citadel virus. Ofcourse, the TO has said and some discussion on the previous posts. But would a virus could stop the internet connection? I also surfed the net to get some cure. But it seems to be a major attack on compromised system.
I thought that bit comet downloader is the culprit and by disabling or removing this would possibly get him the full connection.
