With a brand new Dell Inspiron 530----2 gb ram, 250 gb 
 harddrive, Internet Explorer, and roadrunner e-mail, Suddenly 
 , yesterday Internet Explorer would not open any webpages, 
 and the messages say "Page cannot be displayed. "
 A Dell tech tried to open in Safe mode, also Installed 
 Service pack 3,, shut down firewall, installed I E- 7, on 
 Firefox,  ran Windows File Protection ,did a system restore, 
 said the installed I E -6 was corrupt, uninstalled it and 
 reinstalled it , removed Win XP service pac 3, all no good to 
 get I E to open webpages.
 Afier over two hours of "trying " the tech said I'd have to 
 live with it, or wipe the harddrive and start all over and it 
 MIGHT fix it.
 Surely some of you knowledgeable subscribers know a solution 
 and/or a fix for this problem.
     I've also tried several of the suggestions on Google, and 
 nothing fixed it yet.
 Please help this old man with this problem.
 THANKS
