I've been sent over here from the spybot forum. I just got rid of a nasty virtumonde virus, but my vpn just won't connect anymore. It works on my laptop and my office PC, but not this PC. Can anybody help me? cheers, Adam |

Hi there,
I did have a look through the links, but most of them were explaining how to create a connection to my vpn. I have a connection already setup which had been working for a good 4 months, then I got this virus, which is now gone, but the vpn just won't connect. As I said, I have no problem connecting on my other PCs with the same settings. I am confused as to what it could be. I am getting "Error 800: Unable to establish the VPN connection. The VPN server may be unreachable, or security parameters may not be configured properly for this connection." cheers, Adam |

QUOTE (AdamCasey) I have a connection already setup which had been working for a good 4 months, then I got this virus, which is now gone, but the vpn just won't connect. If you had the "virtumonde virus", then you really do not have that VPN anymore. I recommend that you write-down the pertinent set-up information, delete it and follow the above setps to RE-create a "new" connection to that same VPN.
