since I live in a hot spot zone I wanted to use my lap top for net, so I bought a dynex wireless G notebook card and it worked fine but mirar and other stuff got on my laptop so I downloaded a anti-spyware doctor from google and I think it messed up the drive because at first it wouldnt work so I uninstalled and when I reinstalled it said a .sys was missing so I downloaded the file via psp and c&ped to laptop but still nothing, help

Sounds infected to me. Follow the instructions here and post a HijackThis log as instructed at the end:
No you misunderstood I debuged the laptop but the software wont work (the dynex stuff) I know it`s the software because I can get a network(like an office) just the dynex program wont let me configure net setting. also when I reinstall now it says ar5211.sys is missing (I think the anti-spy removed it)
here is a timeline
- installed card
- used web
- mirar installed
- anti-spy from google downloads installed
- infections removed
- next day
- did a full scan of my note book
- when I accessed the dynex configuration window all it said was wait
- uninstalled card x5
- reinstaled card x5
- now it says when I install the card `the file ar5211on dynex driver one is missing'
- I got the file online and put it in my driver file
- card wont install
What about the safe mode option listed here?
