    Many Programs Don't Have Internet Access


    Hi, recently i opened my internet browser and it said unable to access a proxy server, but i don't use one. I disabled it and i could access the internet again. :) My web browser works but many things dont, they just won't connect.


    I have no idea what is happening. I am running a full scan with avast now.

    Any help is appriciated. not to complicated though.:)

    If you have that error it means you had some type of program (probably malware related) that redirected your internet traffic to a proxy server. When it says the proxy server cant be accessed, that typically means the program that had the proxy there in the first place was deleted or disabled.

    I would recommend doing full scans with other programs as well.
