You need to send e-mail to your networking group, or ISP, or whoever you get your networking through, and tell them that they can stop blocking your machine now that you've fixed the virus/webbot problem. Why? Because lot's of place really don't like infected machines, and they get blocked. At least here, you have to go to the networking people, and computer security people, and prove to them that your machine is no longer infected with whatever it was before they will unblock it.
