I have windows xp-desktop-and I cannot surf the internet at all. I can use this site and google- Ill type in Facebook or something and it says on the bottom website found waiting for reply-i ran the tests says it all passed-before I was getting error messages like validating identity (all on my router) and cerytificate error-but i think ive fixed them dont see them anymore-what could be causing all this! Im frustrated! like I said im using a wifi netgear router- and I am trying to get hotspots-says Im coonected-thanks!

What browser are you using ?
What router do you have ?
Have you tried doing a router reset ?
Are you able to run your AV to rule out any nasty's

I'd say give your router a hard reset and then do a DNS flush.
