Unexplainable lack of internet access, No error messages.
Up until 2 days ago, everything was peachy. Then, for whatever reason, my computer decided to not connect to the internet. The weird thing is, it says its connected in the system tray, and the windows internet diagnostics tell me that it "Can't identify the problem". My laptop is hooked up both wirelessly and hard wired to a router, but I doubt its the router that's the issue, because I'm currently typing this from my school laptop, which is working fine. As is every other computer.
So its just that laptop. I don't really know how to make it clear exactly whats wrong, but I'll try my best.
When I run windows live messenger troubleshooting, it tells me "key ports" isn't working.
Peerblock, upon starting the computer, would give the error message:
base filtering engine
ipsec poligy agent
ike authIP IPsec keyring modules
So I looked for ways to fix that, and found out that this was caused by a virus. 2 scans and 26 problem fixes later, I download a BFE fix from my school laptop and transfer it over to the fail one, and peerblock seems to work, but can't load because I still don't have internet access.
edit: peerblock seems to be working fully, blocking incoming connections. Still can't connect to anything else.
But I don't know how. There is no little error icon on the internet thing in the system tray. (look at me and my fancy lingo!)
I went to yahoo answers and got a lot of derp replies, like "If ur on the internats now than why issar a problem, stupid".
I appreciate any help you can give, even if my ineptitude puts you off =(
