        Yeah, but if some program is playing games with your ability to download things, by putting it in Safe Mode with networking you have internet access but none of the junk other than critical processes loads up. That way you can see if it's just a program doing it, or whether it's related to Windows, or possibly something residing in the boot sector. And yeah, if possible I'd throw Firefox on a thumbdrive and take it over to see what happens.
