Re: Suddenly unable to connect to internet with browser

WinXP, SP2
One of my computers rather abruptly is unable to connect to the internet
with either IE6 or Firefox. Other computers on network have no problem.
I can ping the router; I can ping www.yahoo.com.
However, when I try to access the internet with either of my browsers,
IE6 and Firefox 2, I receive a message that I am unable to connect.
Very curious. Any idea how I begin to track this down?
Thanks

Here are three things to try:
- Flush DNS
Click Start, Run, type:
IPConfig /FlushDNS [Press Enter key]
- NETSH
Click Start, Run, type:
netsh winsock reset
Press Enter key
Restart the system
- You can also try this software download from a working machine:
