So it all started when Maxthon needed this update for something, I downloaded
it, let it install. yada yada, then all of a sudden my browser goes berserk!
and it can't run T_T SO I switch back over to IE while I downloaded the
original maxthon again and fixed that problem. Well, after that happened some
websites I frequent wouldn't come up, I'd get that annoying "can not find
website" or "can not connect to server" error message.
I thought I had a virus, so I downloaded trojan remover (*great* program,
I'd swear by it) and it searched and destroyed some nasty ones but my problem
only seems to be getting worse.
So I fgured, hmm, maybe the simple version of maxthon screwed up my system.
I'll check IE and see if it needs updated. So, I try and download IE7 and
install it but first the box that is supposed to pop up DID pop up, but the
page couldn't be viewed. So I clicked save target as on the download link and
got the message "Cannot connect to server"
My internet connection is running just fine. I have no idea what the problem
is. People have told me I need to reset my DNS settings, but then my brother
told me I needed to go to Windows Update, so I did...and I can't even get to
the page, but I can get to the rest of the website.
Also, some types of pictures on the internet won't show up for me either. On
Weatherbug, all the images on that program don't show. On Yahoo and some
forums I go to , the smilies don't work either. The extention to the smilies
is .gif but other .gifs work fine for me.
PLEASE HELP THIS IS DRIVING ME NUTS T_________T
