I did try to place the wininet.dll file in the system 32 file. Actually I extracted it from WinRAR into that destination. The file shows up, but my computer still acts the same when it was restarted. i am assuming the virus is still on the computer.

what is the infected file? I extracted wininet.dll into the system 32 folder. I don't know what to remove.
Try this: Find wininet.dll and rename it to wininet.dl Wait a few moments. A new, clean version of wininet.dll should appear. Reboot the system and disinfect or delete the infected wininet.dl file.
