ok this is a problem i have never encountered before. i have dsl its hooked up through a router my parents computer is hooked up downstairs by cord and my computer upstairs is hooked up wireless.

Now it says that the internet is up it says my internet is hooked up upstairs buuutt...i cant use any programs that require access to the internet can you help me so i am connected but cant use the internet...tis very odd im going to try and roll back to a restore point but for some reason i have the feeeling that it isnt going to work. or my parents computer either so its probably some sort of virus i have tried norton and some other programs but still hasnt found anything.

However, you can open IE and it just does not connect right? Did you install the program with the DSL disk? you have to do that with every computer

Type in ipconfig and see if you've got an IP. We can move further after that.
