Windows 7: IE Not Connecting to Internet

My IE 8 has stopped accessing the internet (running Windows 7) and displays the message shown below when I try to connect. I have tried a few different sites and keep getting the same message. Firefoc connects no bother and another PC connected to the same router works fine in IE 8. I have the original Windows 7 disk and have tried running a repair but this makes no difference. Is there any way I can download IE 8 and re-install. From looking at the microsoft website there is no option to download the Windows 7 version as it ships with Windows 7. Have tried the Vista one but does not work. I have stopped using the 64 bit version but that makes no difference either.

"The remote device or resource won’t accept the connection."

Hello !! Welcome to SF !!

Try few steps and see if that works

Start | iexplore.exe -extoff it will open IE 8 without any add-ons and see if that works.

In your Internet Explorer Goto

Tools | Internet Options | Advance | Reset then see if that works.

Hope this helps,
