Hello,


I can ping websites (including the router) but I can't browse to them. I got rid of Norton Antivirus which seemed to help untill I brought it back to the client and then all of a sudden it didn't work anymore. I noticed that the list of networks the laptop's been connected to is tremendous. I haven't exactly been using vista all that much but could it factor in at all ?
Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

Hello


You are ahead of the game a bit. All web is a name that is translated to en IP ADDRESS. DNS is the service. You normally put a few DNS IP Address in your network settings. Might include the router's IP as well as the DNS IP address for your ISP.


If worse comes to worse put a web site search engine's name and IP Address into your hosts file. Then you can use it to act as your DNS.
