Solve : Browser woes...?

Answer»

Hello,
I tried to network my computer with my wireless LINKSYS system.  This failed and I also now can no longer connect to the Internet with Internet Explorer or Firefox;  HOWEVER, I can connect with AOL.  I know i may have changed a setting on the system. but i cannot figure out what i did .  Any ideas?
DougAre you using DSL?

[GLB]Flame[/glb]yes - I am using DSL and ME...
DougWas the Linksys modem/router that you were trying to install compatible with your computer? Also, how long ago did this happen?

[glb]Flame[/glb]yes - the linksys router is compatible with the computer; we have had no problems with this for nearly two years.  This problem only surface yesterday.
DJNOk.... Follow these instructions.... Click Start -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore. When you click on system restore, you will see a box that asks if you want to revert your hard disk, or create a checkpoint... Click on the button that says revert. After, click next. Now, you will see a calendar.... I want you to click on the day that was 2 days before you ever installed the router. After, click next.... Your computer will give you a confirmation... Just click yes/ok on that.... Your computer will now restart... This process might take a while, so be patient.... Let us know what happens...

DJNAOL has hijacked your browsers. Call them and they will tell you how to repair it.And if they don't help, tell them you'll go to one of their rivals...

In fact, just do that anyway. AOL is for the sort of people who don't venture further than their front lawn 'just in case'. Since you've SHOWN remarkable common SENSE in using Firefox, I'm presuming that this is not the case.I will try AOL  but thus far they have been no help.  If it wasnt for wife's desire to keep AOL it would have been gone long ago...
