well if you're not running an antivirus program then you may very well have gotten a virus that is blocking your internet. I'd suggest downloading a free program such as Microsoft Security Essentials or Avast! Antivirus on a computer you know works well and transferring the installer file to your computer with the problems. install the antivirus and see if it will scan and find a virus.

my connection is fine and i don' believe i have antivirus

sometimes you can also get malicious software on your computer by downloading or web browsing. google Malware and download the free software, scan your computer. i had the same problem but i fixed it.

Make sure the cables are plugged in and that your router/modem/etc is turned on/plugged in.

Install Anti-Virus software such as Avast! or Microsoft Security Essentials if you don't have an AV. Although, if you have AVG, kill AVG and get one of the above.

Run a Malwarebytes scan. Google it to download it.

Actually, on one test I saw... AVG 8.5 scored better than Microsoft Security Essentials. And I recommend using Malwarebytes to remove the malicious software before installing the antivirus (I personally recommend Avira, but Avast! is nearly identical with its protection).

Well my computer won't start up now... I know how to fix it but I cant. Thanks anyway.
This is what happens when you don't use an antivirus. When you reformat, get one. Avast, AVG, Avira. Any.

Cxi tiu okazas kiam vi ne uzas kontrauxvirusan medikamenton. Kiam vi reformatos, akiru iun. Avast, AVG, Avira. Iu.

Now's as good a time as ever to upgrade to Win7. Backup all your important files with a Live CD of something (Ubuntu should work fine), and just do a clean install of Windows 7. Once it's all working, install Avast! home edition.
