    Unable to surf internet

    Hello everyone,
    Here is my pb: I have an Asus laptop with windows vista home sp1, when I want to surf the internet is impossible. By connecting the venation of my cable box, the pc tells me that he logged on the internet but when I launch IE or Fire fox, no page is displayed except the classic error page. Note that windows update works because the PC is updated, however update my virus definition (avast family) is impossible and it says can not connect to the server.
    Thank you

    Your problem looks like a DNS problem. Could you give us the result of the command "ipconfig / all" if you like. This order must be placed in a shell (Start / Run and type cmd)

    Microsoft has published in early July an update that modifies the way in which DNS servers are queried on Windows (to correct a huge security vulnerability has existed since the beginning of the Internet but there is little discovery). Multiple firewalls in their original configuration are not compatible with this update. It is necessary to update the rule that allows DNS integration or, depending on the firewall, to apply a patch.

    ok
    for info using the windows firewall. For updates I installed all updates available as single update on this link works. I also tried to clear the dns cache with "ipconfig / flushdns" but nothing happens.

    I found !!!!!

    Thank you Norton!A uninstall Norton's was going wrong and internet does not work! In fact, we must use the uninstall anti virus recoverable on the Symantec site.

    We have less bug free software: they are professionals!
