Reset Internet Explorer settings

You can reset Internet Explorer settings to what they were when Internet Explorer was first installed on your PC. This can be useful for troubleshooting problems that may be caused by settings changed after installation. Note that resetting Internet Explorer isn't reversible, and all previous settings are lost after reset.

1. Close all Internet Explorer windows. Select the Tools button, and then select Internet options.
2. Select the Advanced tab, and then select Reset.
3. In the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box, select Reset.
4. When Internet Explorer finishes applying default settings, select Close, and then select OK. Restart your PC to apply changes.

Wow, could you be a little more vague? Hard to help you with such a broad problem.

Notes

• To open Internet Options, click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Internet Options.
• Internet Options allows you to change the settings of Internet Explorer, but it cannot be used to change the settings of other Web browsers

Well of course the internet is not working if the laptop is locked. In fact, if the laptop is locked nothing is working, right?

So, why is the laptop locked? When you turn it on, what is it doing and what is it asking you to do?

And what is this Internet Security you mention??

The only Internet Security I know of is a Virus or Infection that calls itself Internet Security.

Don't get me wrong, Internet Security is vital, but it is process and not a product per say. There are things that end with Internet Security such as Norton Internet Security, McAfee Internet Security, Kapersky Internet Security, etc. The only product that calls itself "Internet Security" is a virus known as the Internet Security virus.

Is that what is popping up on your screen and blocking you from doing anything?

Check if your internet is working on machine.If internet is wokring try the following steps
Open IE
Tools tab > Internet Options > restore Adanced Settings and Reset Internet Explorer settings.
Restart IE.

How to set it as default browser - Open internet explorer (with connection or without)click on Tools> Internet Options. Click on the Program tab, then click on the Make Default button.

If that doesn't work -

1. Go on start menu and find "control panel"

2. Once you've clicked on "control panel" click on "network and internet"

3. Click on "internet options then the "programs" heading

4. Click on "make default"

If that doesn't work check on network and sharing centre on your control panel and make sure your 100% connected to the internet.

If you are and my connecting up to the internet didn't work try contacting your internet provider.

Hope 1 of my two solutions helped :)
