Hey, guys =D Really in need of some serious help here
This is really getting in my nerves. I've read multiple threads about similar problems and none of the advice given was helpful.
It started out of nowhere on my PC. I attempted to access facebook on Google Chrome and it just wouldn't load. (ERR_CONNECTION_ABORTED).
Then I realized it also happenned with youtube, gmail, and a bunch of other websites, in any browser (tried it with Opera, Firefox and IE as well)
Funny thing is: i can access these websites normally by IPad through the same network.
Here's what I've tried so far:
- Flushing DNS via cmd
- Changing TCP/IPv4 settings so it wouldn't auto-assign
- Clearing cookies/caches in all browsers
- Router reset
- Running antimalware software (kaspersky and malwarebytes - found tonds of stuff, quarantined/deleted them, problem persists)
I can access these websites via VTunnel.
I am also able to access google when I use the IP instead of domain name, but cant do the same with facebook.
What really puzzles me is why the hell can i access these websites through my ipad (not the mobile-based apps, but the same desktop versions of these websites) but I can't with my PC?
Im begginning to think this is some sort of crazy*** new malware that softwares can't get their hands on.
