Problems With IE/firefox
Okay, firefox won't go into my e-mail, yahoo won't search, and I can't go to MANY sites like https://support.ati.com/ics/support/...ge&folderID=27 (need to upgrade)... IE v7 WON'T even connect to the internet... now I have no spyware (as far as I can tell)
I went into safemode with networking and EVERYTHING worked... but safemode = ANNOYING Anywayz, I got the latest firefox/ie/flash/java installed... any ideas? Jam it back in, in the dark. |

What exactly do you mean when you say "It won't go into" or "it wont search?" Do you get an error? A 404? etc.
There's nowhere I can't reach.

Okay, with IE and Opera now, it won't connect to NOTHING! Not internet connection what so ever... latest IE and Opera installed
Mozilla DOES connect to the internet but only limited... MANY times I can't do searches in yahoo gives me the "cannot find page" error... and that URL too... I can't enter my yahoo e-mail either or gmail or any e-mail for that fact With safe mode everything worked... but I can't work with safemode networking 'cause everything is 100000x bigger and my monitor for some reason goes black the top half part which makes it even harder to read anything...

You might have issues with your connection, in general. Can you connect with any other online software? (AIM, A game, etc.)
Also, could you tell us your OS, connection type, and your ethernet/modem information, etc.? I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

There's no firewall...
but hmm... how do I reinstall TCP/IP/Ethernet? Just by unplugging it? 'cause I've done that... and it's weird how it works fine with safemode... Anywayz I have a switch going, and on the old computer everything "connection" wise works... I tried unplugging and replugging the portals and all... and no change... What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |

Well you can't reinstall the protocol like you could in 2k/before..so you can start by reinstalling your ethernet card and restarting your PC. Go to your device manager and reinstall the drivers there. Just in case, you may want to delete your Winsock registry keys and let Windows remake them.
Start->Run->regedit Search for "winsock" and delete the folders named "Winsock" and "Winsock2" HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\W insock HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\W insock2 So after uninstalling the ethernet card and deleting the winsock folders, restart. It should prompt you or something at startup to install it. If it does it on its own, great. Give it a shot then. Jam it back in, in the dark.

READ THIS POST NOT FROM THE START:
Okay I'm gonna bump this with new information A few days ago... firefox won't go into my e-mail, yahoo won't search, and I can't go to MANY sites like https://support.ati.com/ics/support/...ge&folderID=27 (need to upgrade)... IE v7 WON'T even connect to the internet nor will opera... now I have no spyware (as far as I can tell).. add-aware, spybot and ewido I went into safemode with networking and EVERYTHING worked... but safemode = ANNOYING since everything = 1000x bigger + the top half of the screen = black (monitor doesn't like safe mode either) So, like I was told, I uninstalled the ethernet and the winsock files in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\W insock HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\W insock2 But since deleting those files, I can't connect to the internet with any browser or messenger or anything... this is seriously troubling... BTW, when I uninstalled the ethernet and rebooted it detected and reinstalled it... I checked the winsock and winsock2 was BACK in the local machine... but winsock wasn't Anywayz, so I run, then type cmd and ipconfig... I got IP addresses for Autoconfiguration IP Address and Subnet Mask... but the Connection-specific DNS Suffix and the Default Gateway is blank... So I have no clue what this means so I just did the 'ipconfig /release' and then 'ipconfig /renew' but I got an error saying "An Error Occurred whyile renewing interface local area connection 3: an operation was attempted on something that is not a socket" BTW, I'm running WinXp, Media Center, Cable Internet. I Hope someone can help me out My Computer = HP Pavilion Media Center TV m7330n Desktop PC http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/p...&lang=en&cc=ca EDITING: I did a system restore... BUT the intial problem with IE/Opera not working are there, and Mozilla has limited access again... Most amazing jew boots
