Plea for help: any techno-savvy folks reading?

Writing this on my dad's PC as my laptop's internet access has given up the ghost.

The good news: I worked out the problems I've been having all week was some sort of spyware screwing up my net connection.

The bad news: in trying to fix it, I've managed to completely wreck the connection. Before I could at least sometimes use MSN and email, now even when I get connected it's just this error message:

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.exitseraphim.net', Server: 'mail.exitseraphim.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

I've done system restore, didn't work. The spyware's gone. Can anybody help?
