Default CNN Virus Problem

I had the CNN Virus Problem a few days ago and have finally cleared (I
hope) the virus from my system.

I now have a new problem.

My lan contains the following components:

wireless router, two computers, two printers, network backup drive

Computer 1 had the virus.
One of the print drivers was deleted somewhere along the way.
Now, Computer 2 can ping all other parts of the network except
Computer 1.
Computer 1 can ping only itself, not even the router but it does have
Internet access.
IP address, mask and gateway are all the same as they used to be
before the infection. No dup IPs on the network.
Rebooting the standard million times has not changed anything.
Setting a fixed IP address, rebooting no help.
Back to DHCP, no help.

The most eerie of all, the print driver for one of the printers,
printing to a fixed IP address WILL print a test page but printing a
normal document gets a disconnected error.

I need some help in where to look and what to check. I'm out of
things to check.

TIA, GWB

How lucky do you feel?

There is a program, LSPFix, that will sometimes fix problems caused by
"improper" removal of viruses/malware/firewalls. It's free and worth a
try:
