It would be helpful if you posted the exact text of the error message and told us which version of Windows you are running.

It looks like you are infected with the CommonName spyware/parasite:

http://www.doxdesk.com/parasite/CommonName.html

Manual removal instructions are included in the above link, but you should also be able to remove this and other spyware and parasites with Spybot and Ad-Aware.  See the message from ChrisRLG at the top of this forum for links to download Spybot and Ad-aware.  After installing these programs, update them then run them and allow them to remove all of the garbage they find.

Steve

Then try ChrisRLG's suggestion about HijackThis and post your log in one of the recommended HijackThis forums.

bah! winnet is the devil. I tried for 3 hours to get rid of that on my girlfriends computer. did all the manual removal and everything. it still cam back. why don't viruscans just remove them? spybot doesnt, neither does ad-aware.

tried and@doxdesk procedure twice, along with spybot, hijack this..seems to erradicate but then I lose my network connection and internet.. I reload network and internet back to operational then WINNET error comes back..

i might not be an expert, but i had the same problem, i used "ad-aware" and "spybot S&D" and i got rid of it in no time.
