Have you tried going to a command prompt and pinging out. Or you could try tracert to see at what point the traffic is being blocked. Also, run an ipconfig command to see if you are getting a valid ip address.

You need to see if this is a connection problem or a software/permissions problem.

I'm having a hard time understanding your post below so I will ask the question again: Is it a dial-up connection or broadband?

and when i ping out i get a ip address and when i do a ip config i get a vaild ip
he says he has rogers high speed at home and it just wont connect his aol connect but no his ie

Thiss looks like it may concern the same problem you are having. You may want to take a look: Try these out
