This happened 5 days ago. My windows firewall is turned off, its highlighted in all grey and wont let me click it to on. Something about the group policy. I can connect to the internet and get onto sites, but I cannot get on to hotmail, facebook, or msn messenger, anything that has to do with microsoft. I've tried everything and cannot afford 100+ dollars right now. My norton is not popping up on my toolbar as well, its off. Does this have anything to do with my O/S? Or a virus?

Ive tried smitfraud ( the free one) but it wont let me check updates because it cannot connect to my firewall. I'm at loss and freaking out.

Can someone help me?

Thanks so much in advanced.
