Connected but can't navigate & ping doesn't work
Hello,
I'm using an XP computer and I am connected to the internet, but I cannont browse. My Ipod, laptop and the computer that is connected to the wireless is working perfectly fine, however my computer isn't working at all.
I am connected as my signal is 'very good' but when I open Explorer or Firefox the page can't be displayed.
Also when I try using the 'ping' function I get the following message: 'To help protect your computer, windows has closed this programme' Name: Windows Command Processor.
CMD.exe located in windows32
I've run an AVG scan and nothing has come up to suggest I have an infection.
Someone suggested that it's my zone alarm but I don't know how to deactivate it and I can't locate my system tray because there's no icon near my windows clock?? Any sugestions?
