i wouldn't trust explorer 7, till they get all the bugs fixed you can always take it out an go back to the orignal explorer an just try again some other day.

I use firefox all the time. I dont trust explorer anymore.

same thing happened to me, seems as though an update cuases ie7 to stop functioning. if you uninstall and reinstall and don't do any updates it will work agian, but personally i just switched to firefox. works just like ie7, looks pretty close but alot more stable.

i am sure it's not the isp cause i can use my other pc to get to the net just fine. the problem is with the update i am sure just don't know how to get around it.

you might be able to uninstall the update and have it work but i don't remember which one it was.

How do you connect to the internet? DSL, Cable, Dial-Up? Do you have a router? Have you tried clicking on the Network connection and selecting "Repair"?
|

i tried all that i am connecting via liksys router(wireless)
funny thing is i have a VPC on my comp and the explorer is fine / but not on the host machine |

Firefox all the way...my computer quits in I use explorer!!! Try firefox and see what happens....think you will like it!!!

With my LinkSys, I sometimes have to go to the LinkSys settings and click "Save" (I don't have to make any changes). Not sure why, but the internet won't work until I do that. It's something my kids are doing, but I'm not sure what.

you should have msn explorer with windows, use that to download firefox
|
|

If you cannot get IE to work, use Windows Explorer. In the address line, type in the url and it either try to find the website itself or use the last known functioning version of IE.
Then, get Firefox! :) |

ok first step....Quit using IE!
switch to Mozilla or Opera |
