I am having problems on my laptop. A Dell Inspiron 6000 1.4 40 gb HD XP Home
plugged into a linksys router on a broadband connection.
All other computers on the network having no problems.
I can connect using peer to peer programs, and when I open Internet Explorer
I have no problem with opening my home page (Google) or getting search
results. But when I try to open a search I can only connect to one of every
ten or so sites I try, on the rest I get a "page cannot be displayed" error.
I have checked my IE properties and set everything
back to default settings with no luck. I have checked sites that will not
come up on the laptop and they do come up on my desktop.
I have disabled the XP firewall. I have cleared all cookies, offline web
content, and history in internet properties .
I ran Trend Micros' Sysclean and it found no problems.
I ran Ad Aware and Spybot. Spybot found 3 minors and AA found nothing.
I cannot connect except to browser home page and very very few random
websites.
I have been switching between a broadband router connection and a wireless
connection, could I have setting problems there?
I am stumped. Any help is appreciated...thanks...gary
