dont know whats going on,have had computer in 3 times
spent hundreds of dollars same problem keeps coming

connected,yet computer and ips show me connected
 
Please specify.

Which type of connection you have... eg Cable / DSL / Dial Up etc
Which Operating System eg 2000 / XP Home / XP Pro etc
Which Antivirus / Security System / Firewall you use
Are there any other bits of hardware like Switches / Routers etc
Can you think of anything you did that might be connected... eg installed
something, changed something.

In IE try tools>internet options>connections tab>LAN settings button. If the
"Automatically detect settings" box is checked does unchecking it make a
difference? Is there anything in the "Proxy Settings" fields? Make a careful
note of it then uncheck the appropriate box and see what happens. Note you
may have to restore those settings, it's hard to tell without knowing your
system.
