IE Won't Connect

hkkippy · 03-27-2008, 05:56 PM

IE had been working fine but it stopped connecting to the internet a couple of days ago. Four green dots start at the bottom, but it never gets beyond that point. On the other hand, Mozilla Firefox is working fine, but I like to use IE also. Any help is most appreciated.

Normally this happens if IE got corrupted due to wrong installation of updates. Anyway, the best thing you do is perform a system restore (XP/ME) or just reinstall IE.

I removed IE 7 and then when I tried to reinstall it I got this message.

C:\WINDOWS\ie7_main.log

What now?

Thank you,
Howie
