Hi, and thank you for having me.

I have an Acer Aspire5520-5033 with Vista, unknown service pack. All of a sudden IE will not load websites even though it says the internet is connected. I am able to send files to this computer through windows messenger for the purposes of file transfers.

I have no idea what is wrong except that I suspect my browser has been hijacked. Please note that I sent Firefox to this computer and installed it, but it would also not connect.

Sorry, I may need to be talked through some simple steps.
