| Internet problems Hello Experts, Well here is the thing. I think i got a virus that did some damage to my computer settings, basically everytime i try to connect to the internet it will say page not found. Also any program that tries to access the internet cannot connect at all. The wierd thing is i can ping any site and the ping works fine, its whenever anything else tries to connect to the internet, BTW im on a LAN and im using Broadband. My question is, is there anywhere i can poke around in the registry to see if a setting was changed so that the computer thinks it has no connection to the net? Also i can browse my network fine, but as soon as i open IE says PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED, or for instance if Norton tries to update itself if just says that there is no connection. BUT I CAN PING ANYONE I WANT FROM A DOS PROMP!!! This is so frustrating, replay if you have any idea what it might be. Im running Windows XP SP1 Professional.

I have the same problem, but the thing is I can get on the internet in safemode just fine. WOW doesn't seem to work but I can get on to Steam and play CS. I checked the regisrty and found a process called mace.exe and got rid of it, I also uninstalled it from control panel but I still can't access the net. I think there is something running in the background due to the fact that everything works in safemode. Any help would be great. |
