Windows says connected to internet but no webpages will load
I realize this problem has probably been posted here before, but i believe i have a unique version of this problem. Windows says its connected to the network and internet on both ehternet lan and wireless, but when i open a browser no web site will load. Ive tried firefox ie and chrome. I have went to lan settings under internet options and confirmed that its not set to use a proxy. I have went into ipv4 settings on both lan and wireless adapters and everything is set to use dhcp, i even tried static with no luck. here is the thing that gets me, windows update will connect and download updates, and when i ping a website from a command prompt i get a response back. i have turned off windows firewall as well. tomorrow i will be reinstalling browsers and checking for viruses/malware, but i dont think that will solve my problem. please help
