Q:

I can’t seem to get the internet to work on my PC. I’m running Windows XP with Firefox, and it says that it can’t display the webpage when it’s in offline mode or something like that. How do I fix that?


A:

The Firefox Browser has a setting to work offline. Is there a chance that this has been activated without your knowledge? To check, please click “File” ( in the menu bar) and look for the “Work Offline” menu item. If it is checked, then uncheck it, and you should be able to surf the Web. If it is not checked, and the rest of your Internet applications are working correctly, then more than likely, you do not have an Internet connection. Please check your connection to the Internet and make sure that you are connecting.  Possible problems could be ISP related, or something as simple as a cable being disconnected.
