I'm trying to help my sister on her PC, b/c had viruses and ran slow. I installed Avast, service pack 2 and all available updates, now its working great except hotmail and gmail won't open.(didn't before either) I googled this for hours and tried everything from enabling cookies, clearing temp files, and using IE 7 and Mozilla. No luck, also w/ the SP2 the firewall wouldn't enable and was greyed out, so i found a solution of going into regedit and changing the enableFirewall DWORD to a (1) value to enable it. now the firewall is enabled, but still no luck w/ opening email. I've tried about everything I can find via google. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Nate
