Re: Internet Explorer will not show web pages, Firefox does.

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

You are very fortunate. Following advice from this MVP imposter normally
leads to a disaster.

too late, I ran the remove-it program and has fixed the issue. Box tests
clean for spyware and virus I am still testing before I put back on our
production network.

Thanks for the warning though.

Don't. This advice is from a phony MVP. You'll end up with more problems.

Use my Remove-it software, it will remove that malware from your
system. Choose yes for all options when prompted except for the host
file modification (It will replace your company's host file with mine
if they use one). Download it here

I have similar symptoms with three PC's at the office, all behaving the
same way.

Proxy is correct, TCP/Ip stack is all DHCP, no static settings. Box
can ping gateway and DNS with no problem. I can connect to it remotely
with no problem. However, no browser web access or email via Outlook.
No spyware, no firewall SW installed.

I am stumped and may have to reimage these boxes unless I figure this
one out. Will try the below suggestions. Seems like it could be name
resolution issue but with all DHCP am not sure where to look

Firefox works. It is NOT a proxy setting, not what is obvious
anyway.

I spent two days cleaning malware off machine. Also used SFC
/SCANNOW.

Was using IE6, but due to it not displaying web pages, I downloaded
IE7
with Firefox, and installed IE7.

Still have the same problem. It does act like a proxy problem.
Malware
residual affect?

IE7 DOES display local files okay.

Is there a registry setting that could have been tampered with?
Other computers in house work fine.

Maybe one of these:

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
