RE: Vista can ping internet but will not connect to web sites

OK, I finally uninstalled Spyware Doctor instead of only disabling it, and,
as if by magic, the internet is back in business. This is the new version of
Spyware Dr (v5) that is supposed to work with Vista.

Not sure why - I had disabled every service it was using (I thought)...and
the svchost instances did not show any Spyware Dr-related services running
under them. The whole thing is very strange. I guess I am off to talk to
the Spyware Dr people, now!

Maybe my experience with help someone else.
