Which web browser and operating system are you using? Does it also happen in another browser, e.g. Firefox? Also why are you using Safe mode? Does it happen in normal mode?
If IE7, try Tools - Internet Options - Advanced - Restore advanced settings and restart IE. If that doesn't work try Reset on the same screen.0 -

I am using mozilla & windows xp if that is what you mean. get the same problem using IE. The only way i can post on this forum is by starting up in safe mode networking. I can read posts but cannot reply to any in normal mode.
Done what you told me to do , no effect any more ideas. Would i be better to uninstall the wireless router & restore settings to before it was installed.
The person who installed it for me cannot be contacted.if i had known then what i know now0 -
try a system restore (start, help, system restore). routers don't need any software installing, but wireless network cards do. If system restore stops you getting on the internet, plug the network cable into the router
have you got an antivirus scanner/firewall on this pc?Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:0 -

Wireless usb
D-Link Routerif i had known then what i know now0 -
If you can drag the PC to the router, then plug in the network cable, then do the system restore, hopefully it will fix this issue, but probably stop the wireless working, then you should be able to sort the wireless with help on here.
I am assuming that you have a network card in the PC?Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:0 -

Thanks for the reply. Was hoping that it could be done without moving computer but never mind. Would it be better removing d-link all together before a systen restore or won't it matter.if i had known then what i know now0 -
Do you only have one PC in the house?
By removing dlink, do you mean the wireless usb adapter?
Does the Pc have a normal ethernet cardEver get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:0 -
