My internet wont work?

Question

My internet only works if i do a system restore. If i just turn on my computer it doesnt work. I did a virus scan and nothing came up so i dont know whats wrong. HELP ME!!!!!

Answer 1

I'll suggest you start with Avast (free for download) and make sure to loose Internet Explorer.  Secondly, download Firefox, Lavasoft Adaware, and Spybot.  That should get you started, however it hard to diagnose the problem without knowing what the setup is.  I.E. dialup, dsl, list goes on.

Answer 2

good luck! mine did the same thing before it finally crashed. i had 3 years worth of help from dell as part of my purchase. i spent 4 hours on the phone with them fixing it. try calling the maker of your puter.

Answer 3

Answer 4

try firefox if nothing else and also try a diffrent virus scannner bc sometimes they dont always scan everything

Answer 5

If you have one computer only there should be a grey wire from your modem to connect to your computer or if you have more than 1 there should be a grey wire too check that and if you have windows xp go on my network places and look if internet is connected if you have vista look on network places again if it is connected try explorer or firefox see if it working it should cuz u need internet for yahoo answers!

Use the "Search the Internet" feature on the Search window to download internet explorer over again. Just click 'Start', then 'Search'.
