Help! I updated my HP Paviliion notebook computer (Windows XP) with Service
Pack 1 and restarted the computer. Now I can't access the internet with it.
What do I do?

check your firewall settings to start with
what errors or symptons do you get ?
 
I hate updating. Something always gets changed without my knowledge, and
then I don't know how to put it back. Yep, it was the firewall all right.
Fixed that, thank you.

Next . . . Used to be when I accessed the internet (before SP1 update),
Internet Explorer would automatically start. Now it doesn't until I click
on it. It's not a big deal, but it got changed, darn it. Do you know how
to fix that?

in IE goto tools/connections/ pick your connection and tick always dial my
default connection and when you open IE it will auto dial
set OE to use the same connection
