My daughter has a Asus Eee Notebook and IE8 nor Safari will display webpages. Windows Defender stated that a virus was on the hard drive named "Rogue:Win32/FakeVimes" which it states it removed successfully. However, the internet still does not connect. However, I am able to use Skype with no problem.
The netbook is running Windows 7 Starter Edition.
