    Programs like Steam, Windows Live, Firefox are not able to access the internet. I tried turning off my firewall but it didn't work. They used to be able to work before but for some reason they can't now. Please help.

    Have you been in the services.msc and set anything to manual or disable? I accidently did that last year and disabled one thing and I couldn't get things to access internet. Then things went snowballing downhill to where I couldn't open things from control panel and all. I was fixin to throw computer out of the window. I was just askin though.
