    If it's just not connecting to particular websites it may well be malware.

    malwarebytes and or superantispyware can clean out those things. You may want to run them from safe mode though.

    You could check you internet DNS settings are set to auto.

    Open internet and sharing centre > Local area connection > Click Properties > Internet protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) > Make sure obtain IP address automatically button is selected and obtain DNS server address automatically is selected.
