Cannot Connect to the Internet During Internet Explorer Setup

[austin26]

Hi,

I think this problem is unique. Until yesterday I could connect to the Internet through a broadband connection. But from the morning I cannot access internet. Does anyone believe that the problem could be my computer? And, if so, any ideas of what happened with my ability to navigate?

There is also a possibility that some corrupted files in your Temporary Internet Files (TIF) storage. To clear these:

1. In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options, and select the General tab

2. Temporary Internet Files, click Delete Files and click OK when asked to confirm the deletion

4. Under Personal information, click AutoComplete

5. Under Clear AutoComplete history, click Clear Forms. Click OK when prompted to confirm the operation.
