I have a friend that cannot access his isp homepage or his email from them.. He can surf everywhere else and can use msn messenger. We have turned off his firewall and checked for spyware and viruses. tries resetting all security settings and set email and ie6 to default... Hope someone can help,, just ask if you need more info.

Is he getting an error message or what exactly happens, he needs to call his ISP and explain the situation to them.
