I'm in the bleedin Libruary again because my stupid Computer is driving me nuts again. I'm so fed up with it i'm thinking of dumping it and getting a small Netbook instead :mad:

My problem

I can't access the internet either via explorer or Firefox.

When I try to load Firefox a page comes up saying THE PROXY SERVER IS REFUSING CONNECTIONS. Why is this when i've always been using Firefox. I haven't changed it's settings at all?

I'm in the libruary with limited time so i can only reply to comments via my Blackberry :(

You don't know how much you miss the Internet when you can't access it :D

    ie, tools, internet options, connections, make sure there is no proxy set, and do a virus/malwarebytes scan

    Do some antivirus products insert themselves as a proxy?

    Norton AV used to and also used to set up an email server which your email client connected to but has thankfully binned the ridiculous idea.

    post the malwarebytes log please. Under LOGS tabs and pick the last date.

    Do you know what inboxtoolbar is? It gets flagged up so if not required (or advisable) to uninstall it via the control panel.
    Do you really need to run: google toolbar, google desktop updater etc? If not can remove from control panel, which will speed up computer.
    Also you have AVG site blocker - are you still using it? If yes, I would not recommend it as it gives false information and suggest removing it with: http://www.avg.com/download-tools
    Running malwarebytes, you can now remove spybot from the control panel.
    And facebook emoticons toolbar - I question the safety aspect of this so advise removing this too.
