since installing the latest windows update (approx 7-12 maybe more) days ago, my 3 browsers have stopped connecting to the internet (My internet is connected fine by wifi - skype works fine, it's just firefox/chrome/ie that does not work)

I performed a system restore to before the updates where installed, and ie worked fine - after installing the updates again, IE failed to work again - so i system restored again and turned automatic updates off

Is this a known issue?
It would seem very clear that windows updates have caused this issue, is there a fix?

thank you, please help if you can!

thanks for replying, I will carry out the one-at-a-time method and see if I can pin point which update is causing the problem, I forgot to mention that there are also microsoft parental controls on the laptop - could this be an issue/glitch? (not that any settings have been changed to cause the IE not working)

thanks

Thanks for replying again,

When you say "those updates" - Do you mean the specific updates from last week/10-12 days ago? (or do you mean updates in general from any era of time)

I will post my results/findings of the one-at-a-time method as soon as I can (laptop isn't with me right now unfortunately)

Thanks again

Thank you for your time and knowledge, much appreciated -
I will be sure to set updates to 'notify'

I will be back shortly with my update - thanks
