[Doris Davis]

I have Windows 2000 installed. I can get on the
internet but when I try to open a web site it tells me
"cannot find server". My browser is 128-bit. Have
tried everything I know, which is not much. HELP

Make sure it's not caused by a parasite.

IE 6.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit(s) is/are with
these tools.

p.s Reset the 3rd party browser setting.

More: This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware,
parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
