    I can't connect to the Internet!

    I've checked the firewall and the only browser in that directory is chrome but I can't even access the Internet through Firefox, chrome, or exporer. :/

    I've tried the network at school and using my phone network no dice.

    I have to take a test tonight!!!

    So it looks like it could have something to do with my Norton. I turned off the Browser protection and it started loading pages. It is still loading pages after I turned that back on. Is it going to keep doing this? Or is there something I need to switch off for good?

    You should probably switch it off for good. My experience has been that it's a common problem with Norton and that's one of the reasons I avoid their products.

    While I appreciate your hardship and hope it won't last, I have to admire your telepathic connection to your ISP.

    No one should pay for Norton when there are many free solutions out there that do a better job. Even the free Norton trial that comes with many a new computer isn't worth it.

    It's why God created the smart phone. ;)
