As of yesterday, I have been unable to go to certain websites (facebook, hotmail, msn, windows update) using Internet Explorer 8. I can go to yahoo and google.
I am connected to a wireless router through an ethernet cable.
I've tried unchecking all the boxes under LAN settings and many other tips I found online. Nothing worked.
I scanned my system with malwarebytes and nothing was found. I have Norton Internet Security 2009 and I disabled the firewall to see if that was blocking it. That also did not help
I did a network diagnostic scan and this is what I got.
