Hi there,
I am having a strange problem. I am using Windows XP pro. My computer is a pentuim 4 1.6 GHZ with 512 DDR ram (incase you needed that info). I use the filesharing program "sharaaza" which works fine. I am able to download programs from shareaza but when I try to display a webpage in netscape navigator, mozilla firefox or internet exporer all 3 browsers display the same error message: "[website] cannot be displayed". I have pinged my DNS and no packets are lost which means my connection is fine. I have disabled the XP firewall but I don't think that has much to do with it. As you can see, I have tried everything.
Cheers in advance
