I have been having difficulty opening the internet in normal mode but for some reason it keeps saying there is an error(This is for all browsers), but in safe mode i can use the internet perfectly fine. I think its a hijacker or some other virus. I am not sure. I used hijackedthis to see what running in my computer, but i am not sure which one of the following is be dangerous. I attached a file and have the list there. Have any idea?

This thread shows a very common pattern: Windows reports “connected” but no pages load in normal mode while Safe Mode (with networking) works. That usually means a third-party service, driver, proxy/LSP, or security product is intercepting or blocking traffic on the regular boot. has already grabbed a HijackThis log (useful), and ’s note that other devices work on the same router points to a local PC issue rather than the ISP or router. ’s Flash angle can help plugin-only problems, but it would not normally break browsing across every browser and in normal mode only.
Quick, focused checks you can run from an elevated Command Prompt to narrow the cause:
ipconfig /all
ping 8.8.8.8
ping google.com
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renewRestart after the winsock/ip reset. Interpretation tips: if ping 8.8.8.8 works but ping google.com fails, that’s a DNS/proxy/name-resolution problem. If neither works, suspect drivers, firewall, or LSP interference.
Other targeted steps (do these before reinstalling anything):
- Check proxy settings (Windows 7/8: Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings; Windows 10/11: Settings -> Network & Internet -> Proxy). Disable any proxy unless you intentionally use one.
- Inspect the hosts file at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts (open Notepad as admin). Temporarily rename it to hosts.bak and reboot.
- Perform a clean boot (msconfig -> hide Microsoft services -> disable remaining services; disable startup entries via Task Manager) to isolate the offending service or startup item.
- Temporarily disable third-party firewall/antivirus to test network access.
Run up-to-date anti-malware scans (Malwarebytes + AdwCleaner are good for this). If installers are blocked, download on a working PC and transfer via USB or run scans in Safe Mode with Networking. If the problem persists, post the outputs of ipconfig /all, the ping tests, and the HijackThis/Autoruns log so helpers can analyze specific entries.

Unistall your adobe flash player completely like if your on Windows 7 follow these instructions
Start > Control Panel > Unistall a Program > Double Click on Adobe Flash Player
Then once its all unistalled go ahead and visit youtube.com and download adobe player by clicking on the link they've given you. I'm sure if you visit adobe's site it will work but I've repaired over 10 PCs at the office with the same issue just following this method. If your wondering, there's a known bug with the current version your using. I know this will work, have a nice evening and if you have any other questions feel free to pm me.
