Cannot view internet; however, email and other networked items are OK
Hello All,
This is my first post to this board, after just now finding this site. My problem is with internet explorer. Yesterday morning, I was able to access the internet without any issues at all. Later that evening; however, I cannot access a single URL. The strange thing about this is that my email is still working fine, iTunes works as I was able to download a song without any issues.
I did notice that when I started IE up, it is always trying to connect to the site www.go.microsoft.com/fw7155... something like that. No matter if I change the defaults, clear all cache, all cookies, or anything else... it get this same issue. If I try to type in an active URL, like Yahoo, it spins for a while, and returns the "Web page cannot be found". Since I cannot access the internet, I cannot download any items on that machine to research and fix it.
Also, I completely disabled all anti-virus, firewall, spyware Dr... still no luck
Does anyone have any ideas. This is the strangest thing I have ever seen.
Thank you
Mark K
