hellbellz Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Well I'm typing this on the SwiftBrowse, used in SwiftSwitch, it's the only way I can go onto the internet. Well here's what happened. I'm browsing in TIF the other day, and suddenly, everything comes up as "Internet Explorer cannot display the page". I usually just unplug this cord in my router, plug it back in and it's fixed. I tried that - it didn't work. I restarted the computer, that didn't work. I tested my connection, it was perfect. For some reason, IE7 won't let me go surf the internet. I can still play Runescape on SS, and I can go on the internet with SwiftBrowse. I'd really appreciate it if somone could give me some advice. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primadog Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 make sure your not behind some proxy -- Open internet explorer, click on tools - Internet Options - Connections - Lan settings, make sure automatically detect settings is checked.

hellbellz Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 primadog, I just did exactly what's stated in your post, but it's still the same. The 'net is still 'connecting' and won't load full. Edit - the same thing is happening. Thanks for the help, anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastermule52 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 A possibility is that it updated itself and now is not recognized by your fire wall. Perhaps check your firewall settings, if you have one, to ensure it's allowing IE to get through? The refuge that you built to flee that places that you've come to fear the most ... is the place that you have come to fear the most.Operator - http://www.heartunit.orgCouncil - http://z8.invisionfree.com/skillazModerator - http://forum.meebo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primadog Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Good point master. If firewall's not the issue, make sure you scan your computer for virus/trojan/spyware.

Bradley_006 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Either download FireFox or go to control panel > network connections > right click your internet or LAN connections > press repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellbellz Posted June 16, 2007 Author Share Posted June 16, 2007 Installed Firefox. Same crap is happening . And Bradley, I didn't find anywhere I could right click the lan settings and repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkblade986 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Installed Firefox. Same crap is happening . And Bradley, I didn't find anywhere I could right click the lan settings and repair. The two little computers by your clock that blink on and off... Right click those and hit repair, it should say something like "Renewing your IP address" and will either freeze there and eventually cancel because it can't or it will zip through faster than you can read it. don't worry, you are going to "hell" anyway. wanna race to see who gets there first?Officially reached 100 Combat at 1:33PM EST, June 14, 2007First Dragon Drop: Dragon Chain (Dust Devils) @ 10:48PM EST, July 14, 2008, lv113 combat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
