cannot access internet through IE and ...

[ªÎ¿°¤H@work]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have problems after restore my computer to manufactory status, they are as
followings:

1. I can ping web sites from command prompt, but I can't go to any website
through IE.
2. I can't activate my windows xp because it said me cannot access Internet.
3. I can't login MSN also.

I think all the problems is about accessing Internet. Can anyone figure out
what are my problems ?
(I haven't set any firewall rules to block accessing Internet)

I am using Windows XP Professional.

Thanks all help.

Regards,
William Chan

Since you can ping, but not connect, try these:

NETSH

Click Start, Run, type:

netsh winsock reset

Press Enter key

Restart the system
