I checked the interent connect and it says it has one. I tried to open a webpage in IE and it says page not found. I looked to see if a proxy server is checked and it was not. So I am not sure why this computer wont connect to the internet It does act like it might have a viruse or rootkit...

I have attached the first logs.

I am a retired teacher and I work on senior citizens computers. They are on fixed incomes and don't have money to take them to the computer store to get them fixed their and they don't know how to fix them on their own since they barely know how to work their computers. For the most part I can get them working but sometimes I get really stuck ...like on this one...so I come here for help
