IE7 Cannot Connect

After installing IE7, the broswer will not connect to ANY website out there.
IE worked perfectly fine before the new installation. I'm currently using
Firefox as it still connects. I am using a Linksys Wireless-G Broadband
Router (Model WRK54G). I have, out of reading other posts; restored the
security setting to their default values, cleared all cache, cookies and
internet files, restarted, rebooted and all of that good stuff. I do have a
firewall that I use through one of Microsofts Beta Software Programs, Windows
OneCare, and I have confirmed that the firewall allows the program to access
the internet. Any and all suggestion are greatly appreciated.

Off topic but are you surprised that you're having problems with two
BETA programs? I hope you didn't install them on a computer that's
important!

My suggestion is that you uninstall both programs and get programs to do
the job that aren't still in BETA.

I had that problem too... IE7 is still in beta, and you should not really
trust it...

revert back to IE6, by going to the add remove programs and putting a
checkmark
on the SHOW UPDATES.. then go and remove IE7 .. your IE6 will be restored.

Wait untill IE7 final is released... or if you want to see a browser that
is really good
go to www.avantbrowser.com (free) it has everything IE7 has and more
