The disabling of regedit is a sign of possible virus infection.
Have you scanned using current signature files?

I recommend installing the free personal firewall, Zone Alarm, or any
other, and see its report of the address your machine is trying to
phone.
six desktop firewalls:
ZoneLabs' ZoneAlarm
ZoneLabs' ZoneAlarm Pro
Agnitum's Outpost
Agnitum's Outpost Pro
Sygate Personal Firewall
Tiny Personal Firewall
Norton's Firewall is highly rated, also.

Use the Zone Alarm reports to identify the process on your machine which
is generating the "phone home" attempts. Then kill the process by
renaming it, probably in DOS. If you can identify the culprit by name,
you can search the several AV sites for a cleaning tool, also.
