scorch Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 The only things I can think of are to check for spyware and your firewall settings. Also check the spelling of the connection name, and also make sure it is one that is currently connected. Maybe this'll work.http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956196 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortBus Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 That's kinda like saying "My car is making a weird noise. Do you know what the problem is?" It could be one of a hundred problems. Without first walking you through the troubleshooting steps/questions, my initial guess would be spyware. Download and run both Spybot an Adaware on your computer. Actually, since you probably can't download them without a functional browser, download them onto another computer and copy the installation files into a USB thumb drive.I wouldn't use anything else--many other "anti-spyware" programs are either junk (like Symnatec stuff) or flat-out contain spyware themselves.

cap1kid Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 If you ever get a connection- download an alternate browser like mozilla, just in case of this situation. Then you can eliminate the browser as the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgip2000 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Click "File" on the browser menu. Look for a check mark next to "Work Offline". You do NOT want a check box there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
