Internet works but it really doesnt
1st il say im not on my computer im on someone elses in my family. A few months back i had a problem where i couldnt go to most sites on the internet only like yahoo or hotmail and sometimes those didnt work. A few days after almost no internet worked. The only thing that was able to connect was an online game. Not IE7, Mozilla, Halo, or CoD worked but this one online game did. Ive called alot of companies and no1 can help me. Anyone have any idea to fix this? Also other computer's internet in the house works and its not wireless
