Hi everybody,
This is my first post here, so mods if i've placed this in the wrong forum please don't hesitate to move it to the appropriate forum. I'm in much need of some help.
I've got my girlfriends Sony Vaio Laptop here with me. My problem is related to it not connecting to the Internet. The laptop will connect to the network with no problems, it's got it's own built in wireless adapter, so there's no problems there.
- When I go to open IE7 I get the message " cannot display the page ". When I run the Diagnose Connection option it does it's magic, but turns up with the error message " Windows cannot connect to the Internet using HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP. This is probably caused by firewall settings on this computer. Check the firewall settings for the HTTP port ( 80 ), HTTPS port (443 ) and FTP port ( 21 ). You might need to contact your ISP or the manufacturer of your firewall software. "
Now i've tried disabling the Windows firewall, i've tried restoring default settings, i've tried everything I can think of. There is no additional Firewall software or Antivirus software or any internet security software.
I've tried it with Firefox, but nothing again.
Any help at all at all would be HUGELY appreciated.
Best Regards,
Flyer1.
