I can connect through Earthlink without a problem, but when I go into Internet Explorer it will not connect. Earthlink took me through all the connection steps, with no resolve. I can use all my offline programs;windows, quicken, etc.

Earthlink is often the only long distence computer company that ofers low prices it may work but not all the time. If you are having problems it could be the computer. One thing to check is to see that earthlink has not been deleted from youre hardware. If you still have further problems call \n1-800-GeekSquad

preferences > connection > make sure everything is set right. But i just checked mine, I have DSL but it was set on dial-up, but it still works lol. probably the main thing though is about the proxy. Mine was set on No proxy, which is the default setting.

Hi... i had a problem with the install, it kept failing at the connection stage, i found that my old dial-up connection was still set as the default connection, so i set talk talk to default connection and it worked.\n\nLimbo

...and mine shuts down when i type in an address.  so far, the links are working.  i just downloaded some updates, we'll see if it helps matters.  or, you could just download mozilla firefox as an alternate browser.

An new version came out on Monday - 4.10.3 and their site was down for a bit.  That shouldn't prevent you from connecting, but I have no problems connecting and I can currently access the limewire page.  Try downloading the update from download.com and see if the update helps.

Hey Pal,\n\nTo use the windows file sharing, you should just share one folder! \nbut if you have problem, try to check your connectivity use PING command, after you got the result try to check firewall configuration!\nit should work after you check these things.\n\nCiao,

There are several things that can go wrong. \n\n1.  Dial-up connection did not completely log in. \n2.  Firewall does not permit IE to connect to internet\n3.  Yes, SpyWare can lock you out. \n4.  Your provider is lousy\n\nOn the SpyWare issue, get Ad-aware from Download.com.  Use the search field and look for ad-aware.   Scroll past the sponsor list and get Ad-aware. \n\nAfter that, try SpyBot Search & Destroy.   Again, get this from Download.com and search for SpyBot. \n\nGood luck.

I think there may be problem either with the site you are opening, connection speed or installation not done properly. \nTry opening any other site, if not working restart you pc & try again. Otherwise, Re-install IE 7.0

It would be hard for your computer to automatically download the drivers for your modem without an internet connection... see if you have an installation disk for the modem, or alternatively, use a friend's computer to google your modem's driver... for instance "3Com 56k Modem Driver" replace 3Com with your modem's manufacturer and model number if you can find it.

Are you on dial up, DSL or cable?  If on dialup, sometimes the sites "time out" and will not load, especially if there are many graphics.  Also, there are some sites that are actually down at times.  Lastly, is there a block on certain sites on your computer?

Thats good to have other explorers but still u should have ur basic explorer working at the same time for any emergency....\n\nSo do one thing which can help u, goto Control panel and then Add/Remove programmes  from there select Windows builtin programmes and from there 1st delete the IE from ur system by  unselecting the option for IE and after that again install it by selecting that Option from the same location.\n\nHope it will work

I tried the link and all I got was that the server they are using is down.  I tried in different browsers but nothing.  Still got the same thing.  Best suggestion is to keep checking every now and again.  If they are the one with the problem hopefully they will have the problem fixed shortly.

Do you have Comcast as your ISP? Having the same problem for the last two months I can't download WMP 11, Defender, IE and everything else from Microsoft except the windows updates that are automatic. \n     I've searched other forums and so far the only relating factor has been Comcast but I don't see why that would be the problem considering that every other website isn't affected.\n     You are not the only one confused by this and it seems no one has the answer.

Yes, I did, about 2 weeks ago. Just uninstalled it today.  Pages take forever, or won't load at all. Get error messages, and it closes itself.  Back to Internet Explorer.

Check to see if you have any mapped drives. Even though you are using Internet Explorer, a failed mapped drive in File Explorer can cause everything to hang whilst it searches for the path. \n\nFile Explorer - Tools - Disconnect Network Drive

Yes, I had the same problem. I did a disk compression and disk defrag last night and it was done in the morning. I tried to log on and I had connecting issues, nothing happened, then boom..it would all of a sudden connect. I thought it had something to do with my disk defrag or something, but it wasnt.\n\nYahoo is just whack that way.\n\nCheck the forum out from yahoo Answers:\nhttp://messages.next.yahoo.com/next/forumview?bn=SEA-YahooAnswers\n\nWe are not alone =)
