Okay, so we are wireless. My computer crashed. We access the internet by LAN. Anyhow, I had to reboot my computer (backed up all my files etc) but now Internet Explorer can't seem to connect to the internet. Went through the whole list of FAQ, rebooted the router etc and nothing happened. Any thoughts?

Are you using Vista? My wife had a problem that sounds like this. Microsoft could not fix it. Their answer was to reformat the harddrive. Good luck with it. You may want to go online on another computer and download explorer to a flashdrive then upload it to your computer.

well my friend I think there is some problem with your connection settings. Because the problems which are telling me is directing me to the fact that there are some settings problem on a computer. If you can find it out and definitely this site or maybe any other site will help you with the settings but if you cannot figure it out that my personal thing it is the right time to call someone who can do that. I don't think there is a big problem is that. It can be fixed in a very short time but the only thing is that we have too recognized the problem to solve it.

I sure hate to hear that. I hate computer problems. Do you have internet explorer as your main browser to use on your computer? Make sure it is enabled.
