Okay..my internet explorer won't always connect. It says there's a problem with my TCP port 80..that its behind a firewall or something. I know very little about computers..and dont want to take it to get it fixed because i'm sure its probably a simple fix..but port 80 is allowed on my McAffee and windows firewall is disabled..does anyone please have any suggestions? |

Hi, First try, from Internet Options> Connections> LAN Settings> Proxy server - Use a proxy server, try this checked and unchecked. Next, as a test, turn on the Windows Firewall and prevent McAfee from loading at startup, from within the program or from Start> Run> MSCONFIG> Startup tab. Restart. If the problem goes away, you may have to dig deeper into McAfee's settings.
