my Xbox live works and the home computer im on right now works so its not the Wi-fi. i've tried connecting my laptop with CAT5 to router and ive tried direct connect with modem so i know it isn't a networking issue.

i've used 3 different browsers and noone of them work.

i've tried system restore and it had no effect.

when i try troubleshooting, i am given error code 0x80070522.

Whenever i try to open User account control or try to create another account. nothing occurs. i just can click it over and over and it sits.

i have already tried using the following to scan or clean my computer all have come up with nothing.

*AVG 2011. McAfee. Webroot internet security complete. Malwarebyte's Hitman pro. Avira. Smitfraudfix.*

See this for 'user accounts' http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/103570-user-accounts-add-remove-groups.html

You may also need to flush your DNS cache.
Right click on Command Prompt to run as Administrator, copy paste this in the command ipconfig /flushdns, then press 'enter'.

Are you running FOUR antivirus programs?

You should have only ONE AV program installed and running.
You have to uninstall all others.

I'm not saying, it'll solve your issue right away, but we have to eliminate all possible culprits.
Having multiple AV installed can be causing all kind of issues.

That's my advice and the decision is yours.

AVG 2011. McAfee. Webroot internet security complete. Hitman pro. Avira. Smitfraudfix

If it was me, I'd uninstall:
- AVG (nothing but problems, since ver. 8.0), using AVG Remover: http://www.avg.com/us-en/download-tools
- McAfee, using this: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/McAfee-Consumer-Product-Removal-Tool.shtml

Then, your choice, Avra, or Webroot. Both, good programs.

I'd also uninstall Hitman Pro, which is nothing else, but a bunch of free tools put together, some of them copyrigthed though. Legality of Hitman Pro is at least questionable.

All done?

Download Security Check from HERE, and save it to your Desktop.

* Double-click SecurityCheck.exe
* Follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
* A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.

============================================================================

1. Click Start>Run (Start>"Start search" in Vista).

2. Type in (or copy and paste):

cmd /c ping google.com>%temp%\$.$&notepad %temp%\$.$

and press Enter.

3. Notepad will open.

4. Copy all text in Notepad ([Ctrl-A], then [Ctrl-C]), and then post it (paste = [Ctrl-V]) in your next reply.
