don't bump your thread... people that can help will not even look at your topic because they see several replies to it and think you are already getting helped ... :)
if you can get on the internet using IE but no other browser it is your firewall blocking the programs from connecting...

I turned off the proxy setting in Maxthon and it immediately worked.
