Connected to unsecured wireless network, internet explore cannot display webpage?

Question

Please help? I'm on the brink of yankin all my freakin hair out! I'm connected with excellent strength thru unsecured wireless network but IE cannot display web pages. This just started happening. I was able to connect all day everyday and browse pages and all the sudden bam! I opened up IE browser and got "cannot display webpage" The icon displays I'm connected to network with excellent signal. I right clicked on wireless connection to repair and windows repaired with no problemo. I can go to a friends house and connect to the network in a cinch and browse no problemo. Please help. Thank you.

Well this wireless network you had previously connected to before is probably now using a proxy server so unless you know whos network it is and can find out of they have a proxy server in use then you can go to Tools > Internet options > Connections > LAN settings and configure the proxy in there. Or if you previously had proxy data put in there then follow the same process but just uncheck all the boxes and click OK.
