Hi guys,

Got a weird issue with the browsers on my main rig (Vista 64). It's connected via a netgear wireless adapter to my Sky router. Everything's up to date (drivers, browsers etc) and it's connected with 100% signal. The internet works fine - msn, steam etc all work perfectly.

The problem is that the browsers, both Firefox and II, just won't connect. I've tried everything that I can, cleared the cache, temp files etc, II ran it's diagnostic and said it was connected properly but I just keep getting the "Unable to Connect" message.

It's worked fine for the last 2 years so I'm clueless as to what's happened. Any ideas?

Thanks
 
It's windows firewall. Still doesn't work with it turned off and the commands in dos prompt don't work either. I can still ping sites, average ping over half a dozen sites is 106ms and it's still working in safe mode.

Might end up having to start again :(
