You got a doggy firewall or your parents are blocking sites.

I had a weird problem that made me have to format my harddrive and reinstall Windows. I could only use P2P programs (Limewire, specifically ;)). Nothing else would connect to the internet. I tried, I'm pretty sure, everything. Just ended up formatting :\

Well I used to have a similar problem, my internet used to cut off so websites would never get displayed, but p2p applications like azureus and limewire still worked fine.

What I now do to sort this problem is, I take a certain wire out the back of my router. Wait about 30 seconds while refreshing my browser. Then I put the wire back in and a window comes back up saying renewing IP address. Then I wait until its renewed which takes about 1 minute. Then I continue my surfing on the net.

It works like a charm. ;)
And Un-named, why would his parents block google? Lmao.
