not a clue .... its not set to work offline.. claims he hasn't done anything....internet explorer is working fine..so its not a physical connection tried unplugging router and plugging it back in... a few times... works fine on mine... and on his IE so its not a physical connection problem... its software.. i tried
logging in ... logging out... restarting computer... seeing if it is in memory (task manager) - isnt he has no firewall / anti virus software on that isn't the cause though... including windows not on...its disabled nothing has changed AFAIK... his network settings seem normal... i tried removing profile in app data.. tried ccleaner ad aware - lavasoft tune up utilities08 wtf could be wrong with it??? i'll try system restore if no-one has any other suggestions |

I had this issue and I just removed the profiles let it create new ones after a reinstall uninstalled my old Firewall which I thought was disabled and then restarted. Works perfect now. :S |

rite it has become clear now that the problem stems much further than just firefox... his poker wont connect his download speed is extremely low.... i blame the router... gonna switch it around in a bit and check some settings out... gonna try resetting the router/deleting the user on the router and see what happens... |
