I am on dial-up internet access (for a few more weeks before we go DSL). Our ISP has been experimenting with dial-up accelerators. The one they are testing for Mac OS X clients is called SlipStream.[..]
Today I dragged SlipStream to the trash and emptied it. Now I cannot browse the internet. [..]
I dunno a lot about this but it sounds as tho' "SlipStream" has made some changes to your Network settings.
Look in SysPrefs/Network/Show -> Modem/Proxies.
Is "Web Proxy (HTTP)" checked? If so, uncheck it.

I did exactly what you said - it WAS checked - I unchecked it - now it works! Thanks so much! Can you explain to me what web proxy is?
Thanks, Claire
