After updating to Windows 8.1, cannot access Internet from Firefox or Chrome, but IE 11 OK. I have reinstalled the latest firefox, still cannot access Internet from Firefox. Microsoft is ridiculous?!

Hello WINTERCOMES, check windows firewall (or your personal firewall if windows firewall is deactivated) , make sure to allow firefox access. Check your antivirus also.
thank you
Hello, I have disable all firewalls. The same problem remains. Now I have uninstalled and reinstalled both firefox and chrome. Firefox: No internet access at all. Chrome: Only access to google.com website; no access to other website. I have tried to ping all kinds of websites. Response is very low.

I had the exact same problem with chrome and firefox after updating to windows 8.1 and ianself's solution worked! thank you so much :)
How do I run it as administrator?
@johan007: To run it as an administrator, type "cmd.exe" into Search and then right-click on Command Prompt to select 'Run as administrator'

Thanks it did work perfectly, I appreciate it.
very clear explain!!!
I used ianself reply you have to rightclick on command prompt run as administrator and follow ianself tip after that browsers ans e-mail worked ok
ianself, I created an account just to thank you! Resetting winsock in an elevated command prompt resolved the problem.
Thank you!
