I am using Sony E-series laptop, and recently installed Ubuntu 11.10 through the WUBI installer, dual booting Windows 7. My Internet connection doesn't seem to work fine as it shows connected but I can't browse the net with Chromium or Firefox. I'm a newbie with no Linux knowledge and learn while working on it, so please help me out.

And i have also installed apache, mysql and lamp from terminal though i don't use it but just installed them to check some things; I hope that's not causing a problem.

P.S - I am not able to work anything with the Internet, though it shows connected.

I am in india and not a computers student i use ubuntu just for finding new things and experimenting as a user as windows never really makes a good entity, so using commands as i can come across basically a new user interface, and between i just figured out that stopping ubuntu one from enable made my browsers work back fine. – Skhanna Jan 26 at 9:17
