Sadly the old version doesn't bring me my internet back ... I also have turned off the windows firewall. No luck. I really didn't do anything crazy two days ago - just made this itunes update. I'm afraid I have to set up my system from scratch. I hope I can do that next week. I can't believe this is really happening just because of a silly update ... Well, thank you anyway. If you happen to find out something that could help me, let me know, please.
