My Acer 7720 seems to connect to the web but won't open e-mails from Yahoo or Gmail. Other programs open. The first button on the very top, under the on/off button, is red. This is suppose to be the interent connect button - how do I get it to connect correctly so it will be green, and e-mails will work? Thanks.

It looks like your computer is connecting to the router, but not to the internet.
The pages that appear to load are most likely still in the browser's cache. The easiest fix is to right click the internet icon in the windows bar and select "diagnose and repair"
