I have a Dell Latitude D600 that recently quit connecting to Internet Explorer. I am running on XP. When I click on Internet Explorer, a window pops up as if it was going to launch and then it closes down. I tried to open Firefox and that wont even open. I copied Malwarebytes' Anti Malware onto the laptop and ran a scan. It found some infections which I then removed. But still nothing. Also noted that when I go to the the Control Panel, under internet options, I click that but nothing opens. I even tried running ipconfig, but nothing works. Any thoughts? Is my system trashed? I'm ready to toss this into the scrap heap. I bought this as a refurbished laptop so all of the software came preloaded.
