    ad-aware messed up my connection

    at least i think it was ad-aware.i
    read somewere that ad-aware sometimes can remove files that are essential to internet. I ran a scan some days ago adn it found like 400 objects ans I deleted them all( without making an restore point and the windows restore isn't switched on). so since then my internet connection is working like 5 minutes and then shuts off. it may come back after several reboots but then goes out again.
    I'm ataching a log from ad-aware nad hope you have a solution for mt problems.

    thanks

    Hello there.Please make sure you follow the read me before posting sticky and post all the appropriate logs here.Once that is done,the admins will have a better idea where to start in returning your system back to where it was and giving you access to programs to protect yourself better afterwards.

    Have gone through your AdAware logs and see nothing removed which would cause connection problems. All items removed appear to be tracking cookies.
    We would, as phoenix73 has stated, to have you do the steps given here READ ME Before Posting A Request For Assistance!
    in order to determine what may be causing the problem.
    Are you certain you read that the PROGRAM AdAware can cause connection problems? I have never had anyone experience that. Adware itself can cause connection problems.
    Please give us more information...how are you connected to the internet? Is it dial-up? Have you checked with your ISP? Maybe THEY are having problems maintaining connections.
