Internet Explorer browsing only https sites after Windows Update

[albertro]

After installing the last tuesday updates from microsoft my IE stop
browsing through http sites. I unintalled the patches and reintstall
them again with no luck. I disabled the Windows Firewall and still
only https sites work. I have try LSPFix and WinsockxpFix with no
luck. I already ran Symantec, Panda and AVG for virus and Ad-Aware /
Spybot Search and Destroy for spyware. Firefox and Opera have no
issues browsing the entire Internet, IE is he only that don't want to
browse http sites.

Any idea????

Thanks,

Alberto

Windows version?

Chances are you're suffering from the affect of some "remainders" of malware
which was removed by the Malicious Software Removal Tool.

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.

For come strange reason after I install Fresh Diagnose from Fresh
Devices it ask to reboot. After that reboot everything started
working. I had rebooted the machine more than 10 times before that
last reboot, so all I can say is that the installation touch something
that was needed for IE to work.

Thanks for the information.
