Cannot find server or DNS error

[George]

I too have a similar problem
I have not updated or reinstalled yet
I do not want to yet either
We are running XP Pro, IE6 V6 SP1,
Our issue is using AOL ISP and IE6 we cannot get to
www.nwsc.k12.in.us which is 157.91.111.110
If we use AOL browser it will work
If we use NetZero ISP and IE6 we CAN get to
www.nwsc.k12.in.us which is 157.91.111.110
We have done all the basic, deleting cache, reset
defaults, etc on both AOL & IE6
We cannot ping the site using AOL, we can using NetZero
We ran a tracert logged in AOL and the 2nd hop shows
proxy.aol.com
It appears to be a DNS or Proxy issue

Any Help would be greatfull

It appears to be a DNS or Proxy issue

My guess would be proxy with the proxy changing the User-Agent string.
To test that idea you can run the following string from the Address bar:
javascript:navigator.userAgent
(case sensitive property name)

and see if the proxy is changing that by going here:
< http://www.gemal.dk/browserspy/basic.html >

You could also install your own proxy to replace your User-Agent
in between the client and the server. Search for
proxomitron "user agent"
for more ideas on this tack.


Good luck
