I a Dell Inspiron E1505. Just recently, I upgraded to Internet Explorer 7. After IE7 automatically downloaded some upgrades several days later, I have been unable to VIEW windows...

Here's the kicker...I can get online, but every site I GO to, I'm "unable to view the page". There's the typical blurb about how to check and fix, then at the BOTTOM it says "cannot find sever DNS error..."

The strange thing is, I can use my IM and can see that I am clearly connected to the internet. I just can't view internet pages.

I've talked to DEll, and because my 30 day warrantee has run out, it will cost $250 to get support.

I've also reset my defaults and removed IE7.
I've tryed loading Foxfire, but it does the same thing.
The COMPUTER won't let me retrieve from a prior date because to many down loads have been done.

Because of these IE7 updates, I think something has been altered in my computer programming that won't let me view internet pages.

Can someone HELP?! Is this XP or Vista that you're using? Do have the service pack installed? Do you have the latest updates? What do you mean by "won't let me retrieve"?
