IE7
Windows XP

Hi I moved our main computer and added a DLink wireless USB to it and disabled my Ethernet card

The DLink wireless connects fine and communicates with the modem however when I open Internet Explorer it will not find my home page nor will it find any other SITES just keep getting the Page cannot be found Error it just will not connect to the internet.

I disabled my fire wall (Comodo) but first made sure it was POINTING to the DLink which it was. I also checked that IE was an allowed programme which it was
I disabled AVG as well.
But I still get this PROBLEM it happens with Google Chrome and Mozilla as well, I checked the options in IE but could not see anything obvious that would restrict IE from accessing the internet.

I set my daughters comp up with an identical DLink wireless and IE, Mozila finds the internet and loads the home page.

I now do not know what to look for next any assistance would be appreciated

RichardTurn off computer. Disconnect router, and modem from POWER SOURCE for 30 seconds.
Power them back on.
Restart computer.

If that doesn't work, bypass router, and connect computer straight to the modem.

If that doesn't work...
Go Start>Run (Start search in Vista), type in:
cmd
Click OK (in Vista, while holding CTRL, and SHIFT, press Enter).

In Command Prompt window, type in following commands, and hit Enter after each one:
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /registerdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew

Restart computer.

If that doesn't work...
Go Start>Run (Start search in Vista), type in:
