Cumred_Snektron   check chrome://extensions and chrome://plugins if you see any weird plugins or extensions   9:11:24 AM
Streetwalrus   it's hard to screw things up in chrome   9:11:25 AM
Streetwalrus   there are no settings Tongue   9:11:32 AM
Araidia   I might just download chrome again and see what happens   9:12:35 AM
Streetwalrus   do what Cumred said first   9:13:37 AM
c4ooo   juju:   9:15:01 AM
c4ooo   can you give me OP on the mc server so i can play with command blocks please? Kittyface   9:15:31 AM
Araidia   Well, that's gotta wait because I don't have access to my computer yet. But I'll do it first thing when I get home.   9:17:18 AM
c4ooo   Ariadia: maybe tell windows NOT to use a proxy server   9:18:35 AM
c4ooo   Click the Chrome menu on the browser toolbar.   9:19:13 AM
c4ooo   Select Settings.   9:19:25 AM
c4ooo   Click Show advanced settings.   9:19:38 AM
c4ooo   In the "Network" section, click Change proxy settings. ...   9:19:49 AM
c4ooo   or something like that Dry   9:20:13 AM
c4ooo   Ariadia i have had problems with chrome conecting before Sad   9:21:15 AM
Araidia   What about the proxy setting on the computer(not the browser)?   9:34:58 AM
c4ooo   afaik, when you click the network tab, chrome will open the windows settings   9:36:01 AM
c4ooo   also it probably wont help becouse   9:37:19 AM
c4ooo   if the proxy was messed up, it would give you proxy errors, not server errors Dry   9:38:05 AM

Have you tried all of the following?
1. Reboot (obviously)
2. Restart router
3. Run the windows problemsolver for network/internet and networkadapter
4. Ping google, the router and some device within your network

I don't know if you managed to fix this, but could it be a virus?

u/novenary January 04, 2016, 03:34:46 PM

Did you try a different browser ? Try downloading Firefox with another computer and installing it on yours to see if it makes a difference.

u/Araidia January 07, 2016, 02:52:06 AM

I installed and tried it on a new browser, but the same thing is happening. What's odd though is that when I add "https://" to sites like google and others, it works but it doesn't work with every single website

sorry for the delay, I have been busy

EDIT: Should "Use SSL 2.0" and "Use SSL 3.0" be enable in my internet properties settings(advanced)?

Some websites have weird configs. Sometimes they work on https but not on http, most often it's the opposite, sometimes you have to add www, etc. If you're able, you might want to check with the administrator of that site.

I don't think that is the problem. When I type in google.com(or any website for that matter), I expect to be automatically be connected, not having to put https:// or http:/ or www. I never had this problem when I was using Windows 7(using Windows 10 right now). And even if I do it, the majority of the time it doesn't even work.

EDIT: And after researching and doing stuff, it seems that I have a DNS issue, whatever that means

Yeah I think it's either DNS or a virus. A virus is likely, since I once got one that prevented Opera 12 from opening most sites.

I have a Kaspersky Anti Virus on my computer, but I'll investigate if it was a virus because it could have easily passed by.
Or it could be something with Windows 10 because it has happened to a lot of people.
But for now, good night.

u/Dream of Omnimaga January 07, 2016, 05:12:47 AM

Just because you use an anti-virus doesn't mean you'll never get a virus. You can get infected just by browsing a hacked site or a legit site with hacked ads, if the browser you use has exploits.

u/Araidia January 15, 2016, 01:03:53 AM

Good news everyone!
Seems that the issue was originating from a program called "grillaprice.exe" after searching it up, I found out it was a virus. After deleting the program, there was a proxy server error. After a 5 minute tutorial, the internet was working just fine.

Thanks to everyone who helped me fix this problem!
