Just re-formatted. Browser won't browse.
I just reformatted my Win 7 64 Pro Home and everything has gone smoothly until I tried to browse with I.Explorer. I have Zone Alarm installed, but it's never given me any trouble before. With default settings my broadband (AT&T U-Verse) is connected. I'm using it with my laptop right now.
All I can get is EBay (that is using the reformatted dsktop). Every other page hangs up and says DONE! in lower corner. I've tried turning off
ZA firewall and antivirus. That lets eBay load up but nothing else works. My next step will be to uninstall/reinstall I.E. and see what happens.
Weird. It should work, but doesn't.

Thanks

Zone Alarm is a buggy POS. I know people that use it, swear by it, but ... mysteriously... they always seem to be having internet or blue-screen problems.

Uninstall that crap.

ZoneAlarm used to be amazing, but now it's a bloated hog that yup, is buggy. I use Tinywall now, piece of cake:
