Hello,

I have 2 search engine installed, IE 8 and Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.18. I used to use the IE with dial-up connection, worked fine, but then I change my connection with DSL, IE can't display any page, and I checked the properties, there is no protocol, connection: not encrypted. How to fix this?

Strange, Mozilla works instantly, but I don't like to use Mozilla. I like IE, because I use a lot of MSN messengers, since my IE didn't work, I can't chat using MSN, and my Microsoft Outlook Express dissapeared.

My friend told me to uninstall Mozilla, and my IE will work. Is that true ?

How to fix this. Thank you

Configuration: Windows XP SP2
Firefox 2.0.0.18

U can set your IE 2 default, and U can set MSN as your Home Page. And yes, U can use the 2 together. Go 2 Start, Control panel, Internet Options.........When the windows open, click on the General tab and in the Home Page box type in MSN.com......Next, click on the Programs tab and select the programs you wish 2 run on Default, like Outlook Express, and at the bottom, put a check in the box 2 make IE your Default Browser. Presto! You're done..........Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!
