  1. Ok N4lly,

     

    Fair enough.

     

    I'll stop telling you that it'll work,.

     

    ...but please stop telling me it won't,

    until you've tried the suggestions I've mentioned.

     

    try

    start

    control panel,

    internet options,

    advanced

    reset..

     

    then go back in & under

    browsing

    untick Enable Third Party plug-ins.

     

    If you can get to most sites

    except antivirus ones

    ...then it's a newish virus.

     

    pinging. ipconfig /all, dns settings, tracert et al,

    don't matter much fo the new rootkits around atm.

     

    ...am going to re-reas this post , as sugested

  2. mebbe

    1st show the suffix of the file.

    xp - right click start, explore, folder options, view, untick hide suffixes for known file types

    vista - control panel, folder options, view ...ditto

     

    if it's an office document, eg word,excel, access etc

    mebbe yours is newer and theirs are an older one

    & yours is trying to convert it

     

    open word/excel/etc click help up top & click about microsoft and make a note of the version

    then ask your mate to do the same.

     

    Mebbe ask someone to do a remote fix !

    (Honestly, it takes about 30 secs to fix, but hours/days to describe & fix on a forum)

  3. n4lly, n4lly !

     

    listen very carefully,

    I will say this only once :)

     

    mebbe

    try start

    control panel

    internet options

    & reset everything in sight to default values & try again.

     

     

    ...or reset internet explorers dll's here

    http://www.flipping-computers.co.uk/Jacs/

    click 2 to 5

     

    It works I tells ya , its works :P

     

    Do what it says here

    http://www.flipping-computers.co.uk/n4lly.html

     

    or

    go direct to https://secure.logmein.com/welcome/get_logm...free/signup.asp

    email n4lly@hotmail.co.uk

    re-enter n4lly@hotmail.co.uk

    enter password cavalier

    re-enter password cavalier

    country united kingdom

    I plan to use logmein for my pcs

     

     

    then login into www.hotmail.co.uk

    n4lly@hotmail.co.uk

    password cavalier

     

    to activate the logmein account

     

    & then ask cory

     

    Good luck

     

    ps are you anywhere near manchester?

  4. LOL,

    N4lly,

    mebbe try the link in my post....you don't need msn to work for a remote fix.

     

    ....or, in control panel, administive tools, services, set them all to automatic & reboot.

    That'll fix it!

     

    oh & when you're in the 192.168.2.1 thinh make a note of the encryption

    eg wpa-psk, tkip, & passphrase

  5. N4lly,

    just an idea?!?

     

    ...coz you have full internet acces thru the cable, (when attched to the router)

     

    ...why not let peeps remote fix it?

     

    3 min to fix,

    .....or 3 days to talk about possible solutions.

     

    ok, try a system restore to a month ago first & see if it works...bet it will

     

    Another option for peeps you trust...

    ....just a pointer for your mates

    http://www.flipping-computers.co.uk/n4lly.html

    after doing what it says on the tin ....

    ... log into hotmail with

    n4lly@hotmail.co.uk

    password cavalier

     

    then when all is ok ,

    delete "logmein" from add/remove progs from comtrol panel

     

    TTFN

  6. just to add...having had a very quick shufty at the prev posts

     

    if one computer can connect to the internet thru the router thru the cable

    (not wirelessly coz it could be picking up a neighbours)

    then the routers ok

     

    on the pc mebbe try start run cmd

    and type in netsh int ip reset liam

    if it generates an error do a a system restore to a date when it works

     

    try arp -d

     

    try lspfix - http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm (the .exe one)

     

    ...that's enough for now !!!

     

    also removing ivp6 can help

    (I know it shouldn't make any odds, but sometimes it does !)

  7. LOL,

    Thanks Newt, you know I meant nice to see you again mate ! :)

     

    n4lly,

    I'm guessing it's broadband through the telephone

     

    just open internet explorer (with the network cabl plugged in )& type in 192.168.2.1

    and then enter the username and password

    (a common list is at http://www.routerpasswords.com/)

     

    & have a look around

    (mebbe at the logs - if it says chap authentication failed - it's a username password thing)

     

    settings to ask for when you ring the isp

    are pppoa or pppoe

    vci & vpi

    &mtu

     

    that should fix it.

     

    Except of course if the adsl, or dsl light is flashing on the front of the box,

    coz that mean it's a telephone problem

     

    Good Luck !

  8. Just my 2 pence,

     

    if it's beeping, beeping, beeping !, many times a sec,

    it's a faulty add-on....keyboard, mouse, etc

     

    ...if it's beeping about once a sec it's prob a memory stick needs wobblin'

     

    The time to start worrying , imo, is when it stops bleeping !

     

    TTFN

    Liam
