I can't search google!?

[Guest]

Hi,

I've a client with a very strange beaviuor in his IE: the browser just
ignore every page that hasn't an extension at the end!

I explain. For example the www.google.com page it opens, but if he click the
search boton the browser completly ignores it. I do nothing!

If the page has a parameter like the news group one
(http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie...indows.inetexplorer.ie6.browser&lang=en&cr=US) it ignores it.

I even upgrade it to the new IE7, but it has the same beaviour. I'm sure it
is some configuration, but what?

Does anyone knows why this happen?

Thanks,
Pedro Gonçalves
