Performed IE 7 upgrade last night on two XP Pro boxes. Now even though I have
the home page set to www.msn.com, everytime I open IE7 I get automatically
redirected to http://go.microsft.com/?LinkID=74005 which fails to open. In
fact DNS can't even find go.microsft.com. I can then open other web sites
just fine. What is causing this redirect, what does it mean and how can I get
rid of the redirect?
Thanks

IE7 users are asked to post their questions in the internet explorer
newsgroup. There are quite a few posts there so peruse them for something
on topic before posting a new message.
