Internet explorer only is able to get into a few websites

No no... Normally when I do I am able to get back online and everything is fine because all of the set up files I have were saved and I could go back and get them after I had reinstalled the xp.. But this time when I did... I used the quick install that I did not know would wipe out everything .. Normally I don't use the explorer.. I use the Google chrome... But I had the service pack 2 and that would take care of it all... But.it is something wrong with the explorer that it don't want to make a connection even though I am connected..through a wireless g card.. That is fully connected and running smoothly...But with the exceptions of just 2 websites everything else all it does is bring up the "page can not be displayed" error... When I click on a link....But but in some of the images in do show up when I click on those...But maybe..when the update reminders come in... They might have something that will fix it
