Most of My Programs Can't Connect Online.

Ya I have done this.

It still doesn't work though

Do you have anything related to telltalegames installed?

uh...no. I'm pretty sure it's something related to a hard drive problem, possibly drivers or something. I don't know. All I know is that it's deeper than a virus or minor bug. Firefox 3.0.5 is the only browser that works, and if
I update it, then that doesn't work also. Basically, all my programs can't connect online, and that really disables my computer.

Ok try this:

Start >> Run >> type in cmd type these in and press enter after each line:

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /flushdns

It says "the requested operation requires elevation."

Under the Start menu, type in cmd, right click it and select Run as Administrator. Try again.

Ya I did that before, but after it worked, and I was going to tell you, my browser stopped working... That actually made the situation worse. I had to restore my system,.

Would it help if I told you Avira Antivir, and Mozilla Firefox 3.0.5 can still connect to the internet? They might use a different way or something, and you can help fix it.
