| 1219989 | 2011-07-30 00:38:00 | My Chrome Browser on my DELL Inspiron desktop suddenly cannot reach any site at all, not even google.com or gmail. It always times out (error 118) I have googled this problem. Many have complained about it. But of the help posts that I can understand none seem to work. My DELL notebook has no problems. (Using same modem/router, of course.) Both are running under Win7. Any ideas? |

| 1219993 | 2011-07-31 06:35:00 | No problems accessing any site with FireFox, IE (yuk) or Safari. It's just Chrome that has ceased to get through to anywhere. I do not know how to check "if my firewall is blocking". (It didn't used to.) My BitDefender says that my firewall is active. But I do not know how to check any specific setting that would bar egress by Chrome. Is there a setting for the ISP server that could differ for each browser? |
