Can't access HTTP in web browser

[jgunnip]

I can't access any http sites. After about 30 seconds of trying to connect the connection times out. I can access https though. I have XP on my computer and use firefox almost exclusively (same problem in IE tho). I've tried resetting the modem and rebooting but it hasn't worked. I tried releasing and renewing the IP address and this also didn't work.

I haven't changed anything since it worked last night. My computer goes into hibernate after about 30 minutes of inactivity and this morning when I woke up I couldn't access any http sites. AIM works fine, so does chatzilla, and poker sites.

I remember this happening once before but I don't remember what I did to fix it. I think I just rebooted but I'm not sure. Any help appreciated thanks.

Do you use peerguardian? It sounds like port 80 got blocked somehow. Check your firewall.

what is you security level? Any recent software of firewall changes? Has to be something security related.
