I am getting into a murky area here, because several evolutional changes to windows and how applications are installed seem to be involved. One is the inclusion of the Windows Installer program, which seems to audit software that is added to the system, and takes part in determining if it is...
Something gets hosed on your Win2000 PC, and IE6 will not allow you to connect to the internet. Possibly you just added a router/firewall to your configuration, and have done some updates with service packs and patches. You've checked all the settings for your network, TCP/IP, and IE, and it...
I had a sudden bombshell hit me. From my old install of Win2k Pro, I used My computer to go to the F: drive and call up IEXPLORE.EXE from f:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\ directly. It works! But if I click on the IEXPLORER Icon on the C: drive's desktop, it fails. O then tried copying the...
Well, this is getting more interesting. I've completed option (1) above, meaning that I installed IE6 SP1, and even used Windows Update (www.windowsupdate.microsoft.com) to install all the available patches (Win 2k SP3, and all critical and available patches). After each restart, IE6 SP1 is...
I instaled a second copy of Win 2000 Pro on a logical partition that I set up using Partition Magic (not that you couldn't use something else, but just in case someone asks). That adds another boot option to the boot.ini file that is maintained on the C: drive, and by default, becomes the boot...
I got the recent update of AVG 6.0, ran it, and found 29
instances of unwanted software on my system. Upon removing
all those, I could no longer initiate the Winsock2 socket
software. I took a clean partiton and installed another
copy of Win2kPro on it, and that copy of IE works find with
the...
I have a similar problem, but have tried all those "cures" to no avail. IE6 SP1, Win 200 Pro, and a DLink router behind a
cable modem just wonlt work together. But the problem is definately with IE, because Netscape 7.0, Opera 7, and Mozilla fly with no problems! I got a hit of a...
I have a similar problem, but involving a DLink router/firewall and a cable modem. My research so far suggests two things, both taken from www.Microsoft,com: (1) The Winsock2 key in the registry was replaced by a 3rd party, and IE 6 won't work properly until you get that key from a machine...
