Hello,
I have a computer running Windows XP Home. It was brought to me to clean all of the viruses off of it. Which I am done with, and now I wan't to install all of the windows updates to prevent most from reaccuring. Here is my setup
-Windows XP Home SP1
-I have the system up on my work network that is part of a domain but the pc is not part of the domain.
-Member of a workgroup
-Static IP address
-Connection to the internet - I am able to ping sites such as google via IP address. but can't access them through IE 6
-I have a valid DNS server up and running
-Other systems on the network are operating fine - with exact same settings.
This has got to be the most frustrating situation I have ever seen. I have connectivity but no content. The computer could hit the internet before I cleaned off all of the Trojan horses and such.
Anybody have any Ideas? I will try any!!
