Removal of some virus/spyware trash will break the internet settings on a PC. Luckily there is an easy fix but he will need a program designed to do that.

Download LSPfix and copy it to a floppy or CD. Have your friend put it on his PC and run it. Should take care of the problem and allow internet use again.
