Hi there,
Computers set up with a netgerar router on aol both desktop and laptop. No problems with laptop.
However on the desktop internet explorer a lot of the time can't see the internet connection i.e tries to load but can't. Usually happens if I leave computer for a while, or just have switched it on.
If I then load firefox, internet explorer will load ok then, so that is why I say that it can't see the internet connection, but obviously picks up on it when firefox is loaded. (firefox has no problems atall ) outlook express seems to have the same problem as well, will only read mail if I open it from within internet expolorer.
I have installed ie7 but had same probs with ie6. Running win xp pro 640 ram 700 athlon with no probs on computer otherwise. I have done a feull antivirus and spybot scan all in the clear. Any advice greatly appreciated?
