Slow browser on client PC

[bruce smith]

Hi All,
In need of a little help. I have 3 pc's networked and ICS'd
(XP -host and connected via ADSL,XP Pro-client and Win 98 SE-client)

All works well for file sharing,printing etc. When connected to the internet
the host machine browses and downloads fine. However the other 2 PC's are
unable to use IE 6, some pages load ok but others will not load, also those
that do load do not have links that work.

I have norton internet security on the host Pc and have tried disabling it
all but it makes no difference.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Bruce

Bruce,

I was looking for answers to the same type of problem you
are having. I have 3 pc's networked and ICS'd connected
via DSL.

The host machine works well for file sharing, printing
etc. The host machine also connects fine to all web sites
example www.yahoo.com and finance.yahoo.com. However the
other 2 PC's clients can connect to www.yahoo.com but not
to finance.yahoo.com.

So I tried a ping test from the client PC's and this
worked (ping www.yahoo.com and ping finance.yahoo.com).
So I tried using the IP address in the URL
(http://216.109.119.250) for finance.yahoo.com but the
same results. It didn't work.

Any other ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
