Disable the use of the proxy server in internet explorer tools > internet options > connections > LAN settings. That should solve the problem, next I recommend running a quick virus scan.

My information superhighway Explorer wasn't working a mutually as in the past to boot. A spyware/malware test solved the project. Virus scanning is thoroughly different from spyware/malware scanning (till you employ McAfee information superhighway secure practices), so it quite is priceless to to furnish it a attempt. a sturdy, loose spyware scanner is homestead windows Defender from Microsoft. in my view, it quite is a lot extra effective than all the different loose classes (and that i've got tried all of them). If this does not sparkling up your issue, attempt reinstalling IE or set up IE 7 Beta.
