My computer has Win XP pro. When i first got it, it would connect to everything good and all. BUt now however it will not connect to Secure internet connections; email, online odering, etc. I've looked in the Internet options an everthing couldn't find anything wrong. Hopfully yall can tell me what is wrong.
Have you installed a firewall lately? It could be this. Firewalls now have some privacy settings, witch will block popup, ads, cookies.. At least ZoneAlarm and Kerio has those options...
Maybe a program you installed just enabled XP's built in firewall? It sucks by the way.
I once had some problems after visiting
http://www.grc.com and downloading those freeware... I couldn't share anything on my network, and found some weeks later what whas the problem...
Try unistalling something you just installed...
What browser your using? Try with an alternative; If youre using IE, try Firebird (good time to switch

) or Opera. Both are IE independent so if the problem is with IE, you shouldn't have the prob with Opera or Firebird, and both are really great peices of software!

hope it could help...
