wireless internet?
i use wireless internet on my laptop (a dell latitude d600, if that matters.) for the past maybe month or so, my computer will say i'm connected at a good signal strength, but my internet still won't work. i've done a full scan of my computer using ad-aware se but nothing helps. i know my stuff, but i can't seem to figure out what's wrong. can ANYONE help? i'll add additional info if neccessary.

Please download this file:

Move the file to your laptop(use a floppy, cd, USB, etc.) and run it. Follow the instructions and send me info1313.txt, on your desktop. I'll try to find out what's wrong using that info. If you add the file in the "additional info" section, remember that you won't be informed when I edit my answer, so you'll have to regularly check back.

Does the router you're connecting to have a security code (such as WEP)? If so, you need the WEP key (or the equivalent of one)

are you using your own wireless router, or are you hijacking? if its your own, you might need to mess with the settings. do you have AOL? they make it pretty difficult. can you access the router settings from the laptop while connected?
