What kind of Internet connection are using (Dial-up, cable, DSL, etc.)?

Have you checked your system for virus and spyware infections? If not, read through the threads in our Security forum for more information on how to scan for and remove such pests; they can severely alter and/or cripple your web browsing capabilities.

have you contacted AOL to see what they say might be the problem.

HI!

im new to daniweb i signed up today to find out what the hell is wrong with my computer it is causing me distress.

i have aol broadband 9.0 aol may or may not be the cause of this (i use IE to browse) i cant log onto certain things e.g msn , games(diablo2 counter strike and runescape) i use all of these frequently and they are essential to my sanity i first noticed the problem when i tried to subscribe to runescape and become a member (http://Runescape.com ) but you have to securely log on to subscribe i type in my password and accoiunt name and click secure login but it displays"action cancelled"

my dad downloads a lot of things on dc++ and our internet protection software has expired and i think a virus may be the cause or my settings have been changed can you please help me

thanks!

Hi Alter Ego...welcome! :) You should start your own thread. When you tag on to someone else's, it takes attention away from the original poster's problem, and your problem won't get the attention it deserves either. Start your own thread, stating your problem, operating system, etc, and someone who can help will offer their advice. Good luck! :)
