What should I do if my browser can only open the homepage of websites?

Whenever I try to open a website, it only does in the homepage then displays the "cannot find the server" if I click on a link.

I've already tried deleting the cookies and the temporary internet files but it didn't solve the problem.

I've recently scanned my laptop for viruses using avast and cleaned it using the same program, and that's when this problem appeared. Is this a counter-attack of a virus?

Can anyone help me on this problem? :) Thanks in advance. :D

Try downloading Mozilla Firefox and see if you have the same problem there.

Download a antivirus program. If you don鈥檛 have it.

AVG and Avast has some free ones. http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1 http://www.avast.com/eng/avast-virus-cle...

There are more free antivirus programs out there. What鈥檚 the best of them I don鈥檛 know, but Avast and AVG are good.

I use Norton Internet Security.

Also try scanning with some antivirus online scanner like http://www.bitdefender.com/ and a security/antivirus scanner like http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/home....

Some other way is booting in safe mod with network. Go to Start 鈥?Run - type 鈥渋explore http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html 鈥?(with out 鈥溾€? 鈥?Enter(ok)

Do a full system scan. If something is found, delete it, reboot and do the same again.
