Chances are that you screwed it up yourself.
Unfortunately you didn't tell us at all what's actually
happening, but managed to do so in about 4 or 5
independent threads. It's almost like at work, someone
rings up and says "The internet isn't working!" - DUH.
"The internet is up, but I can't browse". How did you
establish that "the internet is up", and by which means
did you find out that only brosing is broken? Is it name
resolution, can you access any hosts by IP? Are you
behind a firewall/proxy?
There's quite a few means for diagnostics you could
have taken to describe what's going on. And a statement
like the above after an alleged use of Linux of over 3
years probably means that you're not ready for even
a newbie friendly distro like Mandriva.
