There is a few things that apear a little fishy, one of wich being O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PHIME2002ASync] C:\WINDOWS\system32\IME\TINTLGNT\TINTSETP.EXE /SYNC and another being C:\Program Files\DIMES\Agent\Classes\Base\bin\wrapper.exe I would take a look into getting Malware Bytes onto the system you are having an issue with (via a disk or a usb memory stick). Then run this, this usually tells you what it see's. Most of the time if you are hit by bad malware then it may mean a reinstall of your OS, or formating your HDD in other words.

Thanks, i'll get on that tomorow morning (mom's making me go to bed :(.

I have run into this problem before and just got so fed up with it that i just reinstalled windows. Its workd for a couple weeks now and now i come home from vacation and it doesent work anymore.

Have you tried using another browser as it seems you have no malware?

It may be that the settings held in your current browser are incorrect, do you have MSN or something along those lines? If so try signing in and if that fails you can use the microsfts connectivity checker whatsy majig.

[smd75jr]

i have tried boath firefox and IE and the connetivity checker thingy tells me that "Windows connot connect to the internet....blah blah blah blah....check the firewall settings....blah blah blah blah...."

I just rebuilt this box (software wise) about a month ago after i finaly got Cat5 to the room all of my computers are in. i had to reinstall windows because of this same problem.

[Josh Connerty]

Are you connected throuhg a router or server of some sort?

If so try pinging the IP of the machine and see what happens.
