hi all,

Well I really don't know to much about computers. My laptop was working perfectly fine until I let my boyfriend borrow it and now it wont connect to the internet. In the wireless network connection status, it says "connected"
however, when i open internet explorer, it says that IE cannot display the webpage. As it comes up i notice the bar at the bottom say, "Res://ieframe.dll/dnserror.htm#"

Someone told me it might be a winsock error, i tried the winsockfix, lspfix.
I've use malawarebytes, spywareblaster, adaware.

also i cant use system restore either.

I have a Dell Inspiron 8600. WindowsXP. I know I should be more detailed but i don't know where to find my computer information or what info you would for anyone that can help PLEASEEE!!!
i've not been able to use my laptop for a little over a month now.

thank you!
