1.  I am familiar with EZ Armor.  Sometimes these symptoms will show if you're double firewalled.  Is the XP FW off?


2.  I realize you have FF, but try this:

-open Internet Options from the control panel
-under the General tab:
  -click "Delete Cookies" and click "ok" to the dialogue box
  -click "Delete Files", put a check where it says "delete all offline content" and click "ok" to the dialogue box
  -click "Clear history" and click yes to the dialogue box
  -where it says "Days to keep pages in history" set it to 5 or less (the default is 20)
-under the Security tab:
  -click the "Default level" button
-under the Privacy tab:
  -click the "Default" button
-under the Connections tab:
  -make sure it is set to "Never dial a connection"
  -click the "LAN Settings" button, set it to "Automatically detect settings" and click ok
-under the Programs tab:
  -click the "Reset web settings" button, click "yes" to the dialogue box
-under the Advanced tab:
  -click the "Restore defaults" button
-click apply, then ok
-close and reopen Internet Explorer, test for browsing on a few different site
-if still no browsing, continue to Step 6: Restoring TCP/IP


3.  You can try to restore your TCP/IP:

-click start, control panel, switch to classic view, open "Network Connections"
-if you are hard-wired, look to "Local Area Connection"; if you are wireless, look to "Wireless Connection"
-right-click your connection, choose properties
-click install
-choose protocol, click add
-click "have disk"
-where it says "copy manufacturer's files from" type without quotations "c:\windows\inf" then click ok
-choose "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" and click ok
-close windows and restart computer

4.  It could be as simple as a bad cable.  Make sure that the cables seat well and aren't damaged.
