IE problem?

[Guest]

I have a machine that won't do the Internet. IE opens but does nothing. I
have a valid IP. Scanned and cleaned spyware. Currently doing a virus scan.
Also, when I try to start it up in safe mode it just reboots into normal mode.

via another browser?

a spare just in case
ie has a bad day...

Any error message when you tried?.
Also what kind of connection you are trying to establish (i.e DNS, DSL,
wireless with router/modem...etc...) and do you have the components for a
network to function like:
IP address
NIC,
A browser
Set the configuration correctly on your Network Connection.

Try and have a look here:
Click Start >> Control panel >> Network and Internet Connections >> Double
click Network Connections >> Right click on the LAN Connection and select
Properties.
On the LAN properties make sure the Component installed The Internet
Protocol TCP/IP and getting an Automatic IP address from the server ( your
ISP).
Close and try to connect.

Not enough info. It's not an IE problem, it's a problem with your
connection setup.

Dialup or broadband?
