Hey guys,
My new laptop is annoying me. I installed the windows updates (for XP) when I got home and even the AOL update I've been putting off.
Anyway, the thing restarted and I go to open up Firefox and AOL. AOL can't get past looking up the TCP and Firefox looks up the website and then says "Connecting to yaddayaddayadda.com..." and then nothing.
I've unplugged the cable modem, restarted the computer...nothing.
Now I'm using my girlfriend's laptop. We're both connected to the same router connect to the same modem. This is all hardline, not wireless. She connects no problem.
Do you guys have any idea why my laptop and it's browsers will connect to the internet, but not actually finish "connecting" ?
