I still have the problem that qgis seems not to see the internet. I can connect to the Maine GIS server with a browser, but when I try with qgis, I get: "host ... not found". I have a stand along pc with windows 7 without proxy. I looked into the preferences and there no proxies are listed. Is there anywhere else within qgis where I can check or change how qgis accesses the internet? Thanks for help Jake

The geo-referencer did not start. I checked on the internet and found the solution in deleting a registry entry about the referencer and then it work ok. I also found some info on the web about my problem with the wms server, but it was not quite the same and I could not get it to work. I'm not sure if that helps any in finding the problem. Thanks again looking into it.

Do you get a capabilities document or not? I doubt that this is a QGIS problem. Are you behind a proxy? If yes you have to tell QGIS in Settings - network.
