Hi Neo,
It is not that no software works ... just that I am not able to connect to any software that gives me access to the internet. So for example an aol im will not work but microsoft word, excel and all that other non-internet stuff works fine.
What do you suggest I should do? Any anti-virus that might help?
Please advice.
Thank you,
Amit

Just to be on the safe side, when connected:
Start -> Run -> type "cmd" -> type "ipconfig" (black box)
If the number is anything other then 169.x.x.x, then i could be wrong and something could be wrong with the software, but when you saying no software works, it makes me think it is something with the hardware.
