I run my malware software (MalwareBytes) along with Spybot Search & Destroy once a week and run my virus scanner every day because so much stuff comes through my computer on a daily basis.

I'm trying to stay as far away from a system restore as possible because I am constantly putting new software on my computer for work and really don't feel like having to re-download all that crap if I don't absolutely have to

Yea, that's what I've been using for a couple years now.

I highly doubt that it is a virus because this only happens when I am connected wirelessly at my house. I wirelessly connect to the internet at work and everything works fine.

I'm pretty sure it's something to do with the wireless router since that's the only time I will have issues. Also, neither my Wii or my PS3 will connect to the wireless router so I'm thinking it has to be a setting in the router itself but I can't find what it is. I thought that maybe somebody would be pretty savvy in the router department and would know of a setting that would maybe cause something like this to happen.
