Internet help?

I had to restart in safe mode to be able to write this. This morning I used the computer with no problems, connected to the internet fine. This afternoon I keep getting the unable to connect prompt. I am able to connect in safe mode but that's it. Problems started a few days ago when not all my taksbar icons appeared after a restart.

The screens look funny in safe mode and I nned to connect for work. What can I do? I'm running windows 2000 and using firefox for a webbrowser.
Thanks,
CHuck

Sounds like you have some spyware. Were it me, this is what I'd do:

1) Update your antivirus and run a scan.

2) Run a spyware scan.

3) Windoze systems need to be refreshed from time to time, meaning that you'll need to find a way to back up all your data and re-install Windows fresh. I do this every couple of months, just to stay ahead of things.
