ok well i just recently got malwarebytes and i saw a few pop ups about how it was blocking certain ips and i didn't like how that happened since they were completely safe. So i uninstalled it with revo uninstaller and now i believe that it is still blocking ips since i can't connect to the internet with certain programs. Only a few programs still connect with the internet.

I've already tried calling my ISP, connecting to the internet with different computers (that don't have malwarebytes), restarting my modem and wireless box, disabling my firewall, and none of them seemed to fix the problem.

If anyone has some feed back on how to fix my problem, plz reply. Since i just did a fresh install from xp to windows 7 i wouldn't want to make a complete system restore in the first week. :blink:

If you removed Malwarebytes then it is not doing anything. Maybe your system is infected and you need to scan and check that.
You could have easily disabled the IP Protection and still left file protection going or turn IP Protection on and off as desired instead of removal.

Please try the following. Reinstall first if you have to.

Please try this on the computer that is having an issue making sure to right click and chose Run As Admin when needed.

1. Uninstall Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware using Add/Remove programs in the control panel.
2. Restart your computer (very important).
3. Download and run this utility. mbam-clean.exe
4. It will ask to restart your computer (please allow it to).

That should fully remove MBAM from the system at which point if you're still having an issue then you'll need to track down what else might be causing it.
