Go into IE Tools>Internet Options>Connections and click on never dial a connection. IE will work if a connection is present, and you can manually go in and start a connection in your system or turn it on, but to the casual person it looks as if you cannot access the internet with IE

I know because I fell for that trick several times when I was younger and knew less. Also, cancel IE as primary browser. I would suggest getting Mozilla Firefox as a browser and using it. It can import everything straight from IE, and it does not have the security holes. You will not need a pop up blocker when using it.

Some don't like it because it is still in beta, but I use it all the time and do not have any problems. It downloads better and has more features.
