My guess is that Kaleb's NIC (network interface card) is bad (assuming he's on DSL or cable and not dial-up, in which case I would say his modem may be bad). To test, if you are on DSL/Cable or some other broadband (i.e. the first cable leaving your computer to the outside world is a CAT 5e 'ethernet' cable) and you have modem and account for dial-up, try that method, and if IE or whatever internet browser you have works, you've found the problem. I am considering purchasing a cheap laptop to use while traveling, and I'm intrigued with the idea of using Linux or some other operating system (while on the road I'll have time to learn/play). How/where does one start? Assume I only know anything about MS and I've never formatted a disc and loaded ANY new operating system... [Wonko, I still have that box of SW you sent me years ago, gathering dust on my home office desk, anything in there still current and worth holding onto?] Very respectfully, /s/ Meade M.
