My computer has been having problems accessing google, yahoo, the search pages of ebay (not the main page--just can't search). I have tried everything--run virus checks for trojan viruses (something about qhost that someone at my isp suggested I had). Once or twice the websites came back for a day and then went away (the last time was after a "fatal exception error"). Anyway, in a desperate attempt to fix it, I downloaded this winsock2fix that was suggested on a site, hit a couple of keys and nothing worked on the internet. I loaded Windows 98 again, but I still can't open my documents. Have I lost them for good? By the way, google, etc., still won't work.

Help, could you give us some details about your computer setup? What is your ISP? We have AOL.
Do you have dial-up or cable?
What version of Windows do you have? We have WinXP.
What is the brand of your computer? We have a Compaq Presario with AMD-K-6-2, 400Mhz. mirse@aol.com

I have a local isp. I run Windows 98. The computer is an older one--not a name brand. It does say it has a Pentium III processor and a Gigabyte mainboard. Sorry I am so illiterate--hope that is what you were asking.

Oh, and I do have dial up. My main concern now is if there is any way to recover the corrupted documents. Now, if I try to open a document, it asks what program to use to open it and seems scrambled if I do open anything.
