Get IEFix from here:
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4467.html

And Winsockfix from here:
http://www.digitalminds.net/index.pl/downloads

If there's still no improvement, try Hoster from here:
http://members.aol.com/toadbee/hoster.zip
Run Hoster and press Restore Original Hosts, OK, and Exit Program.
Note that if you have a custom host file, this will remove it. You can edit the host file with this program too.

Reboot

Let us know the results.

I have a similar problem as said above. I am not able to view HTTP sites thru IE or Morzilla. I see only 'page can't be displayed' message, but when i ping the URL it's not 'time out'. As they mentioned I am able to access HTTPS sites. (Yahoo IM works)

Actually when i restart my laptop, for first 10 minutes, HTTP URLs work, but after that i get the above problem.

I tried first link, it didn't work. I am not able to download the third link.
