Cable Forum - View Single Post - Can't send emails from ONE of the computers on the network(it's not a firewall issue)

Hi there,
Some time ago, I caught a light spyware infection on my laptop, but got rid of it pretty easily. One day after that, I noticed, that I can't send emails via smtp.

At that time, I was still connected via WIRED connection to my virgin cable modem, because Virgin Media forgot to send me the router. Now I have it, and got 3 comps on home network. Two of them, can send emails easily - apart from this one laptop.
I tried to disable firewall, doesn't help. Smtp server settings are correct, and it applies for TWO different accounts (none of them can send mail outside).

My desktop computer does that without problems, via the same email providers. How strange !

I'd appreciate any hints/suggestions.

thanks
