Is this a multiple choice question? My money is on the firewall. You can
test this by trying to go to well known web sites like microsoft.com and
dell.com. Who is the firewall's vendor? You need to enable the feature
that allows full access to sites. Go to grc.com to check the firewall to
determine if it is doing it's job properly. If a web site is running Java
or Javascript, you might want to check the firewall to determine if it will
allow Java access. Also check the Internet Options to determine if Oracle
is on a list of "bad" sites.

Please respond to
ORACLE-L
I've just bought a new Windows XP machine,
Got all the latest downloads on the O/S.
Installed a firewall.
Got Norton Anti-virus loaded and up to date.
Which bit of code is stopping me from getting
to Metalink and the Oracle websites ? The
pages no longer exist according to my M/S IE.
Regards
