Can't Connect To The Net - Hjt Computer Unable To Conect Firefox
Mar 22, 2005currently unable to connect to the net via Forefox browser. From a read only CD, I have cleaned out several trojans, diallers and assorted rubbish, using Spybot, Adaware, and AVGfree. I have also installed Spyware Blaster. Connection remains unavailable. The installed Norton identifies C:windows erocheck.exe as a backdoor trojan but is unable to remove it and cannot then progress beyond the alert window so much for Norton.

Jan 14, 2006I am unable to connect to the Internet with IE 6, but Firefox 1.5 works fine. Pc-Cillin also does NOT connect for upgrades. Another oddity is that FTP connections in IE 6 seem to work fine.Through another forum, I found out that if I open a webpage through My Computer, it also connects just fine.

Sep 3, 2006Hello I have a problem with my computer. A couple months ago I fried my motherborad and took it to COMpusa to be replaced and when I got it back only Internet Explorer, Trillian and AIM work. None of my multiplayer games will connect nor will Firefox or mozilla. I am running with an 1.6g AMG, ATI Radeon x800 pro graphics card, 2 hard drives... one sata and one IDE. no idea what the mobo is is and I also have a gig of ram.

Jan 11, 2006Firefox is my default browser but I need IE for updates. IE acts like I'm offline. IE won't go online! An additional problem, which is older, is that windows update doesn't recognize my computer as having a valid copy of XP. At least I think that is why they keep saying I need to download a new software for future downloads, yet everytime I try the download fails. I'm up to date to at least the beginning of december 2005, and I'm desperate to download the new critical update.

Feb 23, 2007I have been gone for a while but am back with a new challenge. My Firefox and Explorer cant connect to the internet even though my machine can and I can ping and get replys back from web sites like Yahoo. Let me recap: I have had a Thinkpad T60 for a year with 1GB running XP2 Home edition. After adding a number of programs over the years the startup and shutdown time are long. Yesterday I used a 3rd party program (XBlock) to go in and turn off some programs that startup automatically. They were mostly obvious ones - like an hp officejet startup. After the changes (but before a reboot)

Apr 24, 2006I was and still am having trouble with Windows Exployer. I can open it, but after opening a couple of pages it logs itself off. This is still happening. I tried using Firefox instead (now have both loaded) and have it listed as the Default, but I get an Unable To Connect error everytime now. Links try to open in Firefox and will not open.
1) Why is Exployer logging off?
2) Why can't I connect with Firefox?
3) Which do feel is better?
4) How do I set up default browser? ( I can't remember how I did it)
Wireless Network Connected - Firefox - IE7 Wont Connect
Aug 24, 2007My home wireless network is connected at excellent signal strength, and the other computer on the network can access the internet, but once or twice a day, none of the browsers on my operating system can load anything until I restart. Also, TrendMicro can't update until restart. Possibly related: The last time this happened, I checked task manager and found two copies of rundll32.exe, but only one copy once I restarted. The computer was nuked about a month ago, I've kept my user privileges to the minimum and I perform frequent updates and scans, so a trojan seems unlikely, but maybe it's a driver problem? Also, on one occasion the wireless showed limited/no connectivity, but this is not usually the case.

I tried four different restore points, going back to the first and restore goes through the motions, reboots, then I get a message that say the machine was unable to restore, no changes were made.

Aug 25, 2005for a little while now i've been unable to connect to any servers, or at least thats what i think. I play lots of games online and so on. things were fine and then one day i recieved this error while trying to play 'halo' online. 'An error has occurred while trying to contact the gamespy master server'. after messing around with halo for a while i tried other games; doom3, quake3, counter strike and so on, but all with the same effect, i couldnt connect to a server. This was also the case when i tried to update Ad-aware, it freezes when i try to update. I've checked my firewall and individual programs but have come to no conclusion. have also tried 'system restores' but each time they fail?

Mar 6, 2008I am trying to connect a laptop to our network. When I first logged on a box came up asking for a Netware login (we don't use Novell). I went to the network adapters and unchecked Client Service for netware, NWLink NetBios and NWLink IPX/SPX/NetBios and made sure the DHCP was checked for TCP/IP. I rebooted the laptop and went and tried to connect to the network, still came up with unable to connect, check domain name, etc. Is there anything else I can do or do I have to reload Windows XP?

Oct 22, 2009I followed the advice of the sticky above and with my "refreshed" XP Home Installation on my Dell Desktop, I can't connect to the Internet. The "find a connection" Wizard seems to want to find a dial-up connection and nothing in the way of broadband. I use a Linksys Wireless G PCI Adapter card. The reinstallation did not wipe out any documents or user created files, so am wondering if there is a place in the old Windows files that I can use to get my old connection?

Jun 29, 2008My host PC (my desktop) is running an ASUS P5PE-VM with 1gig DDR PC3200 Crucial RAM, has a Intel DualCore E2180 @ 2GHZ. I use a dial-up connection, and even though it is dial-up, my connection speed averages from 52Kbps to 54.3Kbps. So its actually pretty good for dial-up. My OS is Win XP wit SP2. I think that pretty much covers the important basics. My client PC (my laptop) is an ACER Aspire 3100 w/ 512MB DDR2 It has an AMD Sempron 3200 @ 1.6GHZ w/512KB of L2 Cache. It also has an 802.11 b/g wireless Lan. I installed a wireless card (Belkin Wireless G desktop card) in my desktop (host) and set up an ad-hoc network between the two. Basically I set up a wireless network without a router. I've done this before and had no problem, however this time I cannot connect to the internet using the client (my laptop). Everything appears to be in order, ICS is enabled on the host, Firewall in configured, communication between the two is there, I verified by pinging both IP's using ipconfig. The host is able to connect to the internet and browse with out no problem. its just the client I am haveing trouble with. Could it be a DNS problem? When I open IE on the client it just displays the 'cannot display web page', I even tried pinging the web page and am successful in that, it just wont display the web page. Am I missing something?

Jun 17, 2010I now think a problem, that may have been a bug, could now be a winsock problem. What is happening, is I cannot connect to windows update. It is only anything having to do with and url dealing with windows update. When I get the screen, "unable to connect" and select to have I.E. run diagnostics, it doesn't come up with anything. I've run serveral virus/malware scans and nothing comes up. I have XP, a legal copy, but it does not have the diagnostics software. I have downloaded some sort of winsock "fix" software, but do not want to run this, in fear of totally messing something up.

Jul 24, 2010I have a Gateway FX6000 that came with Vista. I have managed to change the OS to Windows XP Pro 64 but I probably have outdated drivers. I am unable to connect to the internet with that machine using XP. I do have Linux Ubuntu installed as well and and using that OS I can connect to the internet just fine so I don't think it's a DSL Modem, Router, NIC or cable problem, it's most likely a driver issue. When I look into XP Device Manager, the Network Adapter shows as 1394 Net Adapter but under "Other Devices" ethernet controller, PCI simple and SM Bus I see big yellow questions marks.Will I need to update those yellow question mark devices and if so what's the best approach keeping in mind that on that box, for XP, I don't have a working internet connection.
