Confusing Computers!
O.k i'm not very good with computers but i think mine is a bit broke, well something is! It all works fine when i'm doing non internet related things but when i come to the internet it plays up.
I'll try and explain the best i can. I can view plenty of sites but i reckon about 40% wont load. For example (and it's the same all the time) i can view this site
xrtwo.com, rsoc, yahoo and yahoo messanger but it wont let me view ebay, fiestaturbo, msn and msn messanger. So like i said this is just a few but if i started searching plenty would load but plenty wouldn't 
Oh and when it wont load it just comes up with the usual
So any computer people on here think they may no whats wrong/broke? Sorry for the bad description
