I have had similar problems before and it was caused by a program inserting itself in the IP stack chain. After uninstalling it failed to relink the chain behind it and thus DNS resolution wouldn't work.
The only way I ever fixed it was to reinstall. There are probably some things you could try but I'm betting that's the fix. -- Brian Find my public PGP key at http://pgp.mit.edu/ On 7/23/07, Thane Sherrington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Here's a strange one. I have an XP SP2 machine that will ping and FTP fine, but won't surf in either IE or Firefox. It gives the "page cannot be displayed" message. The host file is fine, I've tried LSPFix, no change. It had NIS 2006 which was screwed up, but even after removing it, it won't surf. Another strange thing: Windows Security Center still thinks NIS is installed and working fine. Any suggestions? t
