    Broni,

    I ran OTL Quick Scan, the computer finished and asked me to reboot, which I did. The text file was generated but I can not open my internet browser to post.

    I am on my wife's laptop.

    Which browser is it?
    Do you have another browser to try?

    Also, I want to check, if you have internet connection.

    1. Click Start>Run (Start> "Start search" in Vista and Win 7).

    2. Type in (or copy and paste):

    cmd /c ping google.com>%temp%\$.$&notepad %temp%\$.$

    and press Enter.

    3. Notepad will open.

    4. Copy all text in Notepad ([Ctrl-A], then [Ctrl-C]), and then post it (paste = [Ctrl-V]) in your next reply.
     

  3. to hide this advert.

    Broni,

    I didn't know you had posted reply #62.

    I cannot make out what symbol you have between the numeral 8 and notepad?

    If this is from the computer, we're trying to fix, you do have a connection.
    For some reason, browsers won't open.
    What actually happens, when you try to open your browsers?

    Also, go Start>Control Panel>Internet options>Advanced tab and click on 'Reset" button.
    Will IE open now?

    Broni,

    No, the ping information is from my laptop.

    I did what you asked on my desktop and internet explorer will still not access the internet.

    It gives the same message as before, "Internet Explorer cannot display the web page ".

    The link shown on the address bar is: http:go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?Linlid=74005

    Broni,

    I did try to run your ping request on my desktop, but as I asked in my reply #67, what is the symbol between the numeral 8 and the word notepad??? I can't make out what it is.

    OK, let's make it easier.
    When you open command prompt window, type this:
    ping google.com
    Press Enter.
    What are the results?

    When I type in ping google.com it just causes the screen to flash something for a fraction of a second.

    After I determined that the symbol I asked about was &, then notepad opened up it had a message that said "ping request could not find host google.com. Please check the name and try again ".
