I have a weird problem. I have an XP computer. A while ago the internet just stopped working. I know it's not the connection because i can log in to live messenger and it works fine! I can chat, but when I go into Internet Explorer it says that there is a 404 error to either check my internet connection or to retype the website. I go to the task manager/networking and open internet explorer. usually I would see activity going on, but this time it stays still at 0% When I go to safe mode the internet works perfectly fine. only when i'm using the normal accounts it's when I get that error. I checked my firewall to see if it was blocking internet explorer but it's not. Any ideas?
