VPN can load SKype but no FF

[igl00]

So i have odd situation. Windows7.
All worked fine, then i changed my internet ISP [should be nothing to do with VPN right?].

From now on, when i run VPN i can run FTP/Skype but FF wont connect to any website [just like HTTP died].

Any ideas? I cant find solution of what might be causin that, esp that i didnt touch setups at all. VPN works 100% good - tested on other comp on MAC. Just windows7 has some kind of issue that i cant find. And i did ipconfig /flushdns.

Login to Skype -

Go to Tools - Options - Advanced - Connections - Uncheck "Use Port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections!"

Voila!

not that easy.. i have this unchecked always might be some DNS issue, yet i have DNS to setup 'use auto' nothign hard coded. i use OpenVPN

Could be a DNS Issue. Can you try entering a website's IP directly to see if you can access it?

For instance, does this load Google for you - 74.125.224.72 - enter that in your address bar.
