Yesterday I was unable to get on the internet through my cable modem, it wouldn't reset or setup my TCP/IP settings. After lumbering through a # of NET settings that I probably shouldn't have I gave up and went to bed. I woke up today and the systemis working but I am not able to access a # of the places I normally go. Is there a diagnostic tool, or site where I can run a check on this PC ? One error I keep getting is about a query error, and another about an SQL error. Can Ya Help?

Unless you have sql server installed on your system, it sounds like you have an sql trojan. An up to date antivirus/trojan removal software should be capable of removing it for you.

Thanks Tim, but I've been down that road , I really amdealing with a networking properties problem , as well as the fact that I have noticed that a few of my IE dll files are missing or not available! But thanks again that has helped and is the first thing I normally check is the soundness of the health of the computer itself, mainly viral infections or toolbar bot mayhem!!

TRY PINGING A KNOWN SITE I.E. C:\>PING WWW.YAHOO.COM

IF YOU CAN PING, THEN YOUR BROWSER IS THE MOST POSSIBLE PROBLEM, RE-INSTALL THE BROWSER, ON TOP OF ITSELD, IT WILL ONLY REPLACE ANY CORRUPTED FILES YOU MIGHT HAVE, ONCE YOU'VE DONE THIS REBOOT AND TRY GETTING INTO THE INTERNET, IF YOU CAN GET IN YOU SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO, IF THE PROBLEM IS ONLY "SOME" OF THE SITES, THE PROBLEM IS NOT YOU IS THE SERVERS WHERE THESE WEBSITE ARE HOSTED AT OR THE SEARCH ENGINE YOU MIGHT BE USING TO FIND THEM. IF IT'S THE SEARHC ENGINE, USER A DIFFRENT ONE, IF NOT THEN I'D NEED MORE INFO ON THE SUBJECT

HAVE A NICE DAY
