    hi everyone, i've had this laptop since june 30, until yesterday no problen. but now none of my web browsers work (ie 8, firefox 3.5, chrome) and i am connected to the internet though, i am sure of this because windows doesn't report any connection problems, i am able to sign in to windows live msn and right now i am surfing the web, but using the express gate browser. i have uninstalled and reinstalled network adapter driver, firefox and chrome, reset the network adapter, but nothing worked for me. please any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance.
