Connecting to Internet trouble

[hennessy1]

Ok I have this optiplex computer works just fine and everything went online today when I first started out but now it wont. I started in safe mode works fine. In reg mode works with regular networking like I have shared printers connected to it works fine. Its basically anything with ie7 but ie7 works fine in safe mode. I can even ping websites. Only things I have installed are macafee privacy service and avast antivirus. I even tried disableing windows firewall still no luck. Cable is fine ports are all fine.

If i am not mistaken macafee privacy service is a combo Firewall and Antivirus.

So you have two AntiVirus macafee + avast.

Two firewalls. Windows + macafee.

And you are surprised that it can Not connect?

The poor TCP/IP stack is probably crying from pain.

One Computer, one Firewall, One AntiVirus, and One Spyware.

I only have the parental control part installed no macafee av or firewall.it started after i installed avast so wat in that would be causing it to not connect?

Well as a first step uninstall AVAST (make sure that it is totally uninstalled and does not leave behind running processes.

If it working without AVAST use another AntiVirus progarm.

This is probably better than AVAST it is Free and works with Vista, http://majorgeeks.com/AntiVir_...al_Edition_7_d955.html

Well I have never had that before with avast is there something that I can change that would be able fix it. But obviously uninstall it to see if that makes it work.
