I'm using a computer that seems to be having trouble connecting to the internet. Internet Explorer works fine but Firefox, MSN, and most of its AV programs cannot connect to the internet. Antivir also works
Somebody have any ideas on how to fix the problem?
edit: sorry, wrong forum. This was meant for PC tech talk :!oops: |

Do you have a firewall? It seems like you need to allow those programs to use the internet. IE may be allowed by default. |
