I am working on a friends pc and can connect to the internet with Safari, Firefox but no IE7. Using Cat5 on broadband. I can ping yahoo.com from a command line. I have downloaded and ran Malwarebyte in normal mode and windows safe mode with no findings. I have scanned the pc with AVG 8.0 in windows safe mode with no findings. When trying to connect with IE, the browser just returns that it cannot find the webpage, check my connections.

Check under the IE options, how the browser is connecting to the internet.

Thanks, I ended up choosing Last known good configuration from startup and got it working. I am now applying latest patches and setting Firefox as default browser.
