invisible firewall
My internet has been blocked from getting to my programs/browser, even when I've turn my firewall( and the windows one) off.
I still have a strong connection but firefox is blank, and it wont load ( or attempt to) any site. I've run many malware/anti virus, and i'm pretty sure that's not it. The last thing I remember using before this happened is SDfix, so i'm pretty sure it changed some settings or something. Name of your ISP: Comcast Make and exact model of the broadband modem: RCA DCM315R Make and exact model of the router (if a separate unit): lnksys wrt54g v8.2 Make and model of your computer: XPS DXPO51 Version and patch level of Windows on all affected machines, i.e. XP-Home (or XP-Pro), SP1-SP2, Vista, etc: xp Service pack 3 The Internet Browser: Mozilla Firefox 3.0.8 The other computers on the network work fine by the way. thanks for reading, if there is any more information you need, just ask.

Re: invisible firewall
To open the command prompt: Start > Run > CMD
Then enter the above commands. I think what you did is type them into the run dialog box which will run the command and then instantly close.
