Vista Tutorial - internet x64 problem

**erestel** · 04-29-2008

I have been using Vista Ultimate x64 for more than a year now and this just came up. i realized that i cannot connect to the internet using any x86 programs. my usual firefox 2.0.x would not load any webpage but instead stay on a blank page with the correct address in the address bar. whenever i quit firefox it crashes, and similar thing happens for safari, or IE7 x86. i can only access the internet with IE7x64.

i did not do anything between the last time i could access the internet with other programs fine, and the first time i come across this problem. my windows updater is turned off and no updates have been installed during either.
and i dont know if this is the same problem, the just-in-time debugger keeps coming up and ask if i want to debug. if i close the window it reopens, and if i say yes a message box says "cannot create appication folder" or something like that.
wonder if anyone knows what the problem is? thanks.

another problem, this one with IE7:

since first day using IE7 i have had problem installing plugins to it. everytime i visit a page with a adobe flash file on, IE would prompt me to install the flash player plugin, sometimes twice in a row, while nothing actually happens. same goes for java. anything helpful is appreciated. thanks.

I have got the same problem, as erestel has, exept of that plugin stuff. I reinstalled the Ethernet driver, tried many settings, but nothing has changed, only the x64 applications can connect to the internet (Vista and IE7 64bit, oh and I tried a 64 bit torrent client as well, that was working properly).
I run out of knowledge and ideas, how to correct the problem. Please help me!!!

after looking around on the internet i actually found a working fix. the problem seems to be NOD32. so disconnect from the internet, uninstall and reinstall NOD32 and everything should be alright.

Thanks man, it worked! Where are you from, that you are using NOD32?
