Tech Support Forum - View Single Post - Just installed BitDefender 2009 (can of worms) -- No internet connection now

Hey guys, love this site, and my first time posting...

My girlfriends computer had a suspected worm, so I decided to dump the out-of-date norton, and install bitdefender 2009. Ran a couple scans, and it took care of the infection, and then the fun started:
First, windows wouldn't finish startup (this is after rebooting for installation which went fine), and I found that it was conflicting with Zonealarm, so I turned off that. S now I am able to access the internet only for a few moments before the connection goes away. Other ports still work, Bittorrent still has a connection, but Firefox or IE is a no-go.

Anyone have any suggestions? I'd love some help with this
Thanks!
