  recently i downloaded a uhm-hm program...then installed it.
  
  then hor i read someone saying that his AVG detected a keylogger inside the program...
  
  then i tot that guy just crapping then i just install. then my avast never detect any keylogger, then my comodo firewall came out a notice asking for connection.
  
  the file asking for connection seems v. suspiscious and the description it gave was, 'a method for keyloggers to send information out'
  
  now i disallowed it and i cannot access internet >_> as in webpages...
  
  now what should i do?

  uh oh.. Good luck.. Just try to scan with as many different things as possible and keep a track of all the connections that are being made out over the network. Check your firewall settings and add only trusted programs to your programs list in the firewall.
  
  Re-setup of Windows is the last but the best option of course.
  
  If you are confident enough then no need to re-install windows.
