first thing I noticed it my avg anti-virus is not updating, when I go to thier website it works fine untill I try to download the update file I get a error in finding the page.
so then I try system restore, chose the date (about 2 weeks ago) prior to the newest 3 things I have installed once I choose the date to restore to the next button will not work, but works up to that point(it is not "greyed out")
when I try to go to google.com or google.ca it goes into a re-direct loop untill firefox gives me an error about an neverending re-direct loop.
"Redirect Loop

also can't view google in IE7
"Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address"
I have also tried these things in safe mode.
I do not have the windows disc.
windows xp pro sp3 build 2600
dell latitude d610 laptop
legit copy of windows- laptop was 2nd hand so I did not have the cd,
I need some help, I have also ran adaware and removed all items it had found, did not help.
this all started in the last few days, the only things installed in the last week have been bittorrent, adaware, and a couple movies I downloaded with bittorrent. (tried to restore to just before that time)
any help would be great, I am a pretty good user so even if it is a reg fix I am sure I can handle it with a set of instructions
thank you
