Problem was first noticed when chrome could not access any web sites. uninstalled chrome. tried to re-install chrome but googleupdate couldn't access the internet. I have since discovered that malwarebytes and quicken cannot access the internet. I have not installed anything recently that I know of. I have checked the that the internet connection is set to detect automatically. Doesn't matter if my McAfee firewall is on or off, I get the same results.

IE 11 and Firefox do not seem to be having any problems.

I have run a McAfee virus and Malwarebytes scan with nothing found. I don't know whatelse to try. Help Please.
 
I'd try completely uninstalling McAfee and see if you are still unable to connect using Chrome. I'd also check the windows host file to see if there are any domain exclusions there. Check windows services in administrative tools for any disabled service that may relate to connectivity of programs.
