I updated firefox two weeks ago, and it hasnt been able to connect to the internet since I did that. So i was forced to use IE....and as of yesterday that stopped connecting to the internet. AIM still connects, so there is an internet connection there, I turned off the windows firewall, but still nothing as far as internet. I am running vista...if that helps any. Any suggestions?

looks like some problem with it trying to use IPv6. go to control panel->administrative tools -> services, right click on "IP Helper" and go to properties. select "disabled" from the startup type dropdown list, and stop the service if it's already running. then restart the comp and give it a shot.
