Did IE ever work? If so, what is new between the last time it worked and the first time it did not (new hw, sw, virus, error, etc)? Do other browsers work (Firefox, Opera, Safari)?

Next time you post a help request on a support forum, provide ALL information in the first post. Didn't you think we should know everything worked fine until you were infected?
