Ok, now I understand.  You can't provide too much information.  There are so
many different ways to set up an internet connection.  I've had the same
problem with Win98 where nothing I did would restore internet connectivity
but a re-install. Usually it was TCP-IP screwed up. Not even re-installing
that protocol would fix the problem.   It's one of those situations where
reinstalling is faster than figuring out the problem.  Especially if you've
seen it before.
