Without notinh what OS, I can't see if this made any sense. Also, viral damage can run deeper than what many can repair. If it's that deep, you wipe and reinstall.

After a virus attack, network connections icon
in Conttrol Panel has nothing in the folder.
Thusly, must try to re-install the netowrk connection.
I have disabled some of the (mostly all) of the network
services since the attack as there is still an errant
process popping over and over again.
Now, I want to try and re-install the network services.
I was able to re-install the msiexec.com file successfully with the following method....
start->run> msiexec.exe /unregister
start->run->msiexec.exe /regserver
What I would like to know is, what would the essential filenames for the essential network services
are so this approach could be taken to restart the
network connection(s) servers and possibly get the
network up and running again?
Is this a valid approach?
Thanks.
