Hello! i installed accidentally a software named Mobogenie, which seems really toxic for me, i "DECLINED" the installation but he still installed.. After 2-3 minutes, while i uninstalled it and i we're downloading something in utorrent, i saw i have no network anymore. I use a tp-link wireless adaptor, i was still conected to "my wireless connection name" but i get no network.. I received 3-4 packets and they send around 100-120. I checked EVENT VIEWER and i found some errors :

The COM? event system detected a bad return code during its internal proessing. HRESULT was 80070422 .

ANY IDEA ?

I don';t think Mobogenie did your internet in. I have that, probably got it the same was, downloading a torrent. Check your internet when you DO NO have your program running that downloads torrent. IE turn off frostwire, kazaa or whatever program and test your internet. Alot of ISP's really throttle your network when you goo to file sharing site.

can you open a Task Manager and see what's currently running on your PC? Sort by CPU and see what's going on. If there's something consuming your bandwidth that doesn't look/sound familiar, uninstall it. I'd also download/install a copy of Malwarebytes and run just to see what comes up.
