Vista - can't get to websites

02-17-2009

Hope I type this in right area. Hi

I have a wireless laptop. We also have 3 other desktop. They are all
connected thru router. All the sudden couple weeks ago my laptop started
giving me trouble when it was connected to internet. Btw All but my laptop
are Xp. Laptop is Vista. I can get email, I can run my msn messenger and
yahoo messenger. I just can't get on websites. I tried rebooting router,
turning off laptop. It used to work when I turned off laptop and restarted
it would start working till today. It has been over 8 hrs and nothing yet. I
have renews Ipconfig. dns flush all that I can think of. I pinged my other
pcs in house and it is pinging fine. I pinged yahoo.com and other sites and
the request times out. I have tried Firefox and IE. I run MacAfee. Any help
would be great. Thanks.

You could try the following command from the command prompt:

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled

Try browsing again. If it still doesn't work, undo the change by typing:

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal

Hi I have a similar problem. According to some newsgroup posts it could be
a bug in Zonealarm. If you have it you have to uninstall it. I've got ZA
Pro and even if I disable it on startup it still lock me out of the
internet, but direct access, email etc is ok.

Thanks. > Hi I have a similar problem. According to some newsgroup posts it could be a bug in Zonealarm. If you have it you have to uninstall it. I've got ZA Pro and even if I disable it on startup it still lock me out of the internet, but direct access, email etc is ok.
