Hi,
I'm back...Any ideas?

[Essexboy]

Could you go Start > All Programs > Accessories
Right click Command Prompt and select run as administrator
In the black box that opens type the following command :


netsh advfirewall reset

Then retry Google

Hi,
It doesn't give me the option of "run as administrator" -- also, I'm not the administrator on this comp (it's a work laptop). Is that a problem?
Tried it anyway, not as administrator, didn't work (said I need to run as administrator).

As this is a work laptop you will need to check with them that they have not disabled it via group policy

It was working before for a few months without any problem, and also my collegues do not have the same problem

We will need administrative permissions to reset the firewall, which at the moment is all I can think of that blocking it

Do you know what the firewall is on your computer ? I believe it is just the windows one
