Hi,
Uninstall Chrome,
Then Reset Internet explorer and see if the issue repeats,
See a tutorial here to Reset Internet explorer,

After Resetting ie9 or 10,
I would add this to the tutorials process

Please look at post 4 in this thread.

If there is a check-mark by the option named "Use a proxy server for...."
...then the Address: and Port: fields should be white/enabled
(ready to be typed in).

Are those fields greyed out for you?

Also, what does the Advanced screen look like?


In case you need it: info on making/posting screenshots.

You did not answer my question.
Look at my screenshot in that thread; the fields are white.
Are yours grey?


If you uncheck that option, does it stay unchecked until you reboot?

To answer your question paascal. Yes a infection can cause your problem.
Some infections will do that to try and stop you from going online to get help.

I will leave you in the hands of ThrashZone and go back to watching.
