We recently installed IE6 on a Windows 98 system that was previously
running IE 4.01. Since then, we have not been able to connect to any
web site by name, only by entering the IP address. The connection is
set up to use a server-assigned IP address and DNS Server addresses.
In attempts to fix this problem, we have ...
1. verified the connection properties and TCP/IP settings against a very
similar PC which works fine -- they appear to be the same.
2. deleted TIF, History, and Cookies
3. renamed the HOSTS file in C:\Windows
4. restored the wsock32.dll file from the Win98 installation disk
5. reconfigured dial-up networking and TCP/IP
6. followed the directions on Sandi Hardmeier's site
7. manually uninstalled and reinstalled DUN as directed by KB article
181599
8. thrashed around poking things to see if it made any difference.
Alas, all in vain. Can you offer any advice?
