Preparing Network Connections... (Restart)

This just started recently. I start up my computer, it loads fine, then it gets to the loading right before you logon and says preparing network connections... then restarts. After it restarts it works fine. It doesn't make any sense to me. Now I did have a virus, but I cleaned it out completely. Any suggestions?
