wonder if anyone can help me.

i have a computer here and IE just will not connect, Skype, Email, MSN, Win Updates, Norton, basically everything else connects. I have tried uninstalling IE n re-ins but no dif, repaired connection, no dif, turned off norton, still no dif

any suggestions ?

cheers

Hi adreval, are you getting any error messages when you try and connect?

Hi

no just the usual check settings, which i have done and all seem perfectly normal. at first i thought it was in work offline mode, but thats not the case.

i have tried the connection diagnostic, comes back with no problems found.

Hrmmmm...

Ok, can you goto Start -> Run -> type in cmd and push Ok.
This will bring up the command prompt. Once in here, type ping Google
Do you get a response? Or just "Request Timed Out" message?

ok, pinged, originally nothing, now its fine. i totally uninstalled norton, opposed to turning off, guess that was the problem.

cheers

What a surprise...norton was the problem...

I suggest getting Avast or AVG...much better...and much free'r
