My internet is working but I can't browse.. help.
 

Guys,

on my laptop.. the internet is working and it is connecting fine "downloads updates, outlook" but for some reason the browsers stopped working (ie, firefox) everytime I open either of them it says page cannot be displayed..

This happened all of the sudden, any ideas?

did microsoft update anything..

a few times my computer got fucked up because of microsoft updates.. and I would just backup to an earlier date.

I just had the same problem a couple nights ago.

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

No, just all of the sudden browsers stopped working.. but connection was fine.

Skype, ICQ and email all worked fine for me too.

try a other dns for example 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 from opendns and see what happens then.

Has anyone else had this problem before?

If so, how did you fix it?

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated,

thank you!

happenned while surfing porn? :) sorry not sure, i will try look at settings as proxy and dns, then i will try restart, if nothing will work, i will ask google :winkwink:

internet setting-->...mmm
wich port you use to connect?

Most likely a Virus of sorts,

it happened right after avast expired on me :(

Damn i'm trying hard as hell what caused this as it happened to me a couple of times.
I think it's your ISP mainly. If i recall, i had nothing to do with it.

Run your Virus / Spyware programs and see what happens.

my computer is broken.. must be a virus

my car was stolen.. must be a black guy

I cant make any sales online.. must be tube sites

check if your firewall is blocking IE or firefox
