I have a windows vista, I use my neighbours wireless and it says connected to internet and when I open the browser, IE, GC or Mozzilla it says webpage cannot be found, so I use my lan thinking the wireless was the problem, I get the same thing connected but webpage cannot be found. I thought winsock was for win vista but it doesnt work for it.

Click on Start then Run and paste the following into the Run box, exactly as shown, including double quotes:

cmd /c "ipconfig /all > postme.txt & ping yahoo.com >> postme.txt & notepad postme.txt & del postme.txt"

and press ENTER.

A file will open in Notepad. Please copy and paste the contents here. Close the Notepad window and the file will be deleted and the Command Prompt window will also close.

That will give us a good look at your network status.
