IE unable to connect to Internet

IE8 or Chrome unable to connect to Internet, and network connection
seem fine since I was able to ping outside. I even try to disabke
firewall and that not even help. I could connect from Safemode with
Network. So how do I solve this problem.

If you can connect to the outside world in Safe Mode With Networking,
something you have running in Regular Mode is preventing the connection. It
could be malware or something legitimate. The first thing to do is make sure
your computer is completely virus/malware-free so you know you are working
from a clean base:

If the computer was infected, cleaning it up may solve the issue and you'll
be done. Otherwise the next step is to do clean-boot troubleshooting to
determine what program/process is preventing Internet access in Regular
Mode.

I already try clean boot but that not help. I will try other step
next.
