Cant surf

C

C.S.

I am unable to surf on the web. Oddly enough, I am still
able to use my MSN Messenger and my AOL IM. My online
games that need aconnection to the internet to work are
functioning fine. But I cant browse the web by double
clicking my IE icon OR access my email account through
that option on MSN Messenger. Please help!

First eliminate any scumware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each needs to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.
CWShredder is also available here:

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
