I need help urgently. I have XP Professional and IE6. As I opened my laptop
just now, there is no internet at all. I normally click the Yahoo Finance on
my Quick Launch to monitor my US Stocks. But I get the window saying that
the file cannot be found.
I also have the MSN Moneycentral icon on my quick launch, but I get the same
result. On my desktop is the original Internet Explorer icon. Clicking that
also produces the same result.
Looks like my internet connection is completely gone. The other computers in
the home all work fine. Would appreciate immediate help on how to restore
back my internet connection.
Thanks |

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed? What
anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall
(if any)?
