32-bit Programs Cannot Access Internet
Shane:
Have you ran tdsskiller yet by chance?
The fact that some steam downloads finished and skype works yet no web pages do makes me think you might have a rootkit.
The reason why is the steam downloads ans skype use different ports than web pages. Web pages all use port 80. There are some rootkits that try to hijack web page search results which is on port 80.
SO I just want to cover all bases. Does ping work at all? Open a command Window and pin 8.8.8.8
Let me know the results :wink:

Looks like possible rootkit. IP Helper service isn't listed!

I have run tdsskiller a couple of times by now and I think it's always come up clean, I've been trying to troubleshoot this problem for a long while, heh. The folks on the malware forums at MajorGeeks had me run a number of scans and they said it didn't seem to be a malware issue - or at least I'd already cleaned it up before I went to them :/ The ping I've done before also, and it says that four packets were sent and received. Is it significant at all that the 64bit version of IE works just fine?
The batch file did say it activated the service correctly, though.
tbdawg:
Have you tried the internet again since? Restart of the PC may be required!

Restarted, still no internet for 32bit programs...
