Can't surf web after upgrade to XP Pro

[Jane Stevens]

Hi ... I upgraded my notebook from Windows 2000 Pro to Windows XP Pro and
now, even though I can dialup and connect to my ISP, I can't actually browse
or access my email account. I can ping an IP address but can't ping a URL.
When I try to browse the web (via IE), it pops up a window that says IE
couldn't open the search page and the main window says the page cannot be
displayed.

Guidance please?? Thanks.

some windows file some missing if so type sfc /scannow in the command
prompt.

Try:
Control Panel>Internet Options
Advanced Tab
Under Security section, check: SSL2.0, SSL 3.0

Try if it works.
You should re-start first.

Ran sfc /scannow and no change. Everything is default because I haven't set
anything. Any other thoughts?
