I have just formatted my computer & reinstalled Win XP, with Avast Antivirus & Zone Alarm fire wall.I have dataone B.Band connection.The peculiar problem I am facing is that whenever I am trying to open any page in I.E it shows an error message "Search page cannot be found".Moreover,the antivirus also cannot be updated since it too shows an error message.
In crux, I cannot do any work on the internet although the b.band connection is perfect.
What's wrong? I have also turned off windows firewall so that it does not conflicts with the zone alarm.Please help!! I am in a total loss.

Check your proxy settings.
Have you configured Dataone?
Does ZoneAlarm allow all needed apps to access the net?

Not necessary, it might be some other issue. Use Firefox or Opera meanwhile. Does net doesnt work in IE alone or overall in the PC itself ?

Then are you sure your modem connects to the net and that you have configured your Dataone ?

Try shutting down ZA for a moment and see if any change occurs.

But what about the other applications, like updating of antivirus.That too is not working.Is it a virus which affects the b.band connenction? What do I do?
