Could be that http port 80 is being blocked somehow. First temporarily bypass your firewall and see if that does it and then have a look in internet options>connections>LAN settings and see if there's been an http proxy added.... uncheck "use a proxy server....".
Do you have another browser installed that you can test out? Also try pinging a website by opening command prompt
start>run> [type] cmd....
then in the command prompt/dos window
[type] ping www.yahoo.com [enter]
and see if you get a response.
I installed Mozilla Firefox and now I can surf the internet. This should give a clue to what is wrong with my IE. I would much prefer to us IE...Any ideas would be much appreciated ;)

how about the proxy settings... did you check those?
Did you temp bypass the firewall to see if that worked?
