Internet explorer will not respond

[Darrenbilly]

Hi! Over the past few days, internet explorer decided not to connect. Msn and other internet dependant services but i got the can not could screen when trying to browse the web. I reinstalled it and got firefox, both worked fine. Then again today they both stopped working. I put my wireless router back to its factory settings and it worked. Anyone know the problem here? The network has a password set by me. And has worked up until now. Help please?

Thanks in advance

It sounds like you may have a malware problem.

Go and read this thread HERE and post a HJT log as an attachment into this thread.

Nope, no problems there. However, you`re running an outdated version of HJT.

What now? Another hjt?

This is the log with the latest version of HJT. Again no problems. Any help from here?

I can't find any problems with you HJT log.

You downloaded the latest updates for IE from the microsoft site?

You`re correct, no problems there.

It may be that some of your network settings have gone astray. However, I know bugger all about networking, so I`ll leave that to those that do.

The only other thing I can possibly think of, is your Winsock settings need repairing.

With that in mind, please do the following and see if it helps.

1.) Download WinsockFix.zip. (by: Option^Explicit)
2.) UnZip WinsockFix.zip (Pay close attention to where the file is extracted to.)
3.) Run WinsockFix.exe.
4.) Click the Fix button.
