Gunz problem

[Marduke]

Just recently moved from NTL to Sky (well my parents did) and have come up against a few problems. The most important of all is that the free online game Gunz no longer starts up.

I think the problem is that Gunz checks for an update before loading which it used to do through IE7 (I guessed this as Gunz is on my history for IE7). Yet to my horror (although before I couldn't have cared less) I can only serf the internet through Firefox whilst IE7 tries to commit a genocide on itself.

Well, the yellow brick road has ended here. So I wonder does anyone here had the same problems and managed to get around them or could anyone explained to me a way to fix IE7.

Does IE7 work normally for browsing or is it 100% broke?

Well, I click on the icon....wait.....wait a bit more............

And nothing. It just tries to connect but gets no where.

PS I use wireless

PSS I think my McSecurity may be resposible....

Hi

Just try this and see if it helps:

1) Open IE and then go to tools at the top

2) Click on Internet options then connections

3) Make sure never dial a connection is ticked

4) Click on Lan Settings

5) Make sure all 3 boxes are unticked, then click OK, then click OK on the screen that is left

6) Then close and reopen IE

Well, I have the never dial button ticked but the three boxes? The ones below automatically detect settings? If i click it it then asks for an address what should I do?

Oh and please don't hurt me for being a pain XD

Ps there are 4 boxes in total on the LAN Settings

Oh nuts u said un-ticked..one sec
