hardwire pc cant get internet

[kittysacattack]

All of my wireless computers get internet off the router, but the computer that is hardwired cant get internet. this happened ever since i started deleting files from my computer to clean it up, maybe deleted something i needed. I reinstalled windows and the internet was working, then the next day it didnt work. i tried again in like 5 hours, and it almost loaded a page, some pictures came up, then it stopped. The message is "website found, waiting or reply". I believe the computer is getting internet, but for some reason doesn't work. This completely baffles me. Does anyone have any suggestions, any help is greatly appreciated. Also, i am using comcast cable.

i think i fixed it. this is messed up. I installed AOL because my friend likes to use it. I realized that AOL is the ONLY browser that can be used. I uninstalled it, then re-installed it, now all my browsers work. This makes no sense at all to me. Thanks for all your help.
