Default How to check why I lost the Internet? Is my PC a Zambie?

I have 3 PC connected by wire to a Netgear wireless router WGR614 and
one connected by Wi-Fi.
Some time ago I lost the Internet connection on 1 PC, but I found it
was related to ZoneAlarm and Ms Security update for Windows KB951748.
I fixed this problem, but now I have problems with another PC.
I am sure it is not a wire problem - when I remove a wire from not
working PC and connect it to my laptop - I have the Internet. When I
disconnect the cable from PC and issue IPCONFIG command - I see a
message "Media Disconnected". When the wire (from the router) is
connected back to the PC IPCONFIG shows:
"ipaddress 192.168.1.3 default gateway 192.168.1.1 - and I can ping
between computers.
When I try to access the Internet I see on the bottom of the browser
"connecting to...", "wating for....". tranferring...
and sometimes I am getting a partial screen, but after a long wait.
The Status of network shows about 5k bytes sent, about 20k bytes
received.
Any idea what it is?
Is it possible that my PC became a Zambie controlled by some hacker?

Thanks,

Zalek
