Hi, and thanks for using JustAnswer.

In IE, please go to Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings; do you see any option checked there?

Regards

Customer replied 810 days and 18 hours ago.

Nothing is checked.

I see, so you are unable to access any webpage (ex- www.google.com) at all, in IE? When did you start having this issue?

Regards

Customer replied 810 days and 18 hours ago.

Quite a while back it did the same thing. I kept trying to fix it and all of a sudden it started working. I don't recollect exactly what I did. This time it started yesterday 2/2/2011

I see, and what's your security program? Is/was it Norton, by any chance?

Regards

Customer replied 810 days and 18 hours ago.

The regular Windows protection plus Webroot anti-virus with spyware

I see. First off, please restart your computer and tap down the F8 key at bootup until the Advanced Windows Options menu comes up.

Select 'Safe Mode', boot into Windows in that mode, then go to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore > Choose a different restore point, then restore your system back to a date and time prior to when you started having this issue with IE.

Restart normally thereafter, and let me know if this resolves your issue all right.

Regards
