Paul in San Diego
This PC has had a new install of XP Home within a month. Old version of
Norton expired and was uninstalled so that we could put in new registered
version. Ever since, we can't browse the Net with that PC.
It will PING just fine, both IP addresses and domain names. Same for
TRACERT. Both work fine. MSIE cannot however, show any websites!
What I have done:
Uninstalled Internet Exploder (twice) and reinstalled 5.5 and 6.X to no
avail
Downloaded on another PC (this one I'm typing on) Service pack 2 to CD Rom
and installed it on offending PC.
No change.
IPCONFIG/ Renew and Release work fine. Nothing changes though, no matter
how many IP's I get. Tried both the DSL connection and the Cable modem
connection, changeing the settings accordingly each time. No change.
Firewalls are disabled (Both Norton and XP). OS is XP home edition. Dunno
which protocol that Norton uses for updates (HTTP?) but it won't work at
all - so the virus definitions are still what came on the CD ... however, it
shows no virus problem. Can't download spyware program (didnt' think to put
them on the CD that I put the ServicePack 2 on)
Suggestions desperately appreciated.
Thanks and greetings from San Diego.
