Internet Explorer not working.

I recently got rid of the blaster worm with the download from Microsoft.com.

Now the worm has gone. Everytime I try to open the internet I get "This page cannot be displayed" Message even though my connection to the internet is running.

The two computers are in the bottom right hand corner of the screen and are both lighting up every so often so my connection must be fine...but the computer is not letting me open any web pages.

Can someone please give me some advice on what to do.

Regards,

LLDJ

I have exactly the same problem. Yesterday I found a worm on my PC, the one that makes the taskbar and start menu and everything else disappear from my desktop. Apparently it is called Trojan.ByteVerify , according to my Norton Antivirus Software.

Well, I thought I had removed it by following the instructions on Symantec's website, and it worked fine for a while ( a few hourse) and then........

...then funny things started happening. Here are three very strange symptoms that I have noticed:

1. Every time Windows is started (or restarted), the folder C:\Windows\system32 opens

2. Everything, and I mean every single action (opening folders, clicking buttons) is very VERY slow

3. Internet Explorer has stopped working altogether (shows page not found) even though my internet is connected fine. (I know coz I am writing this post from my PC using Netscape Navigator).

Here is my info:
Win XP, Pentium 4, 512 RAM, Internet Explorer 6, internet connected via ADSL, ethernet modem

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Hi so you went to the symantec site:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com...yteverify.html

and followed what it said. Just to make sure, you did boot into safe mode to remove the trojan. If you did, reboot back into safe mode and rescan your system again. Are your windows service packs up to date as well?

Getting back to the initial inquiry... I was troubleshooting my friend's computer for Internet Explorer. IE was swearing that it could not open any websites, while I-Tunes was connecting just fine to the internet and downloading information.

I checked the settings for Internet Explorer, and everything seemed to be set up correctly. What can I do to get Internet Explorer to work?
