Greetings,

I upgraded a pc by installing windows 98 over windows 95. I wanted to keep all of the users existing applications.

But now Internet Explorer does not work. It loads, but I get a page not found error for both internal and external sites. It's strange. TCP/IP is working and set up correctly. I can ping my company web server. DNS is working and name resolution is successful. I can log into our domain controler. All network drive are attached and can be browsed.

The PC had ie5.5 on it when I did the upgrade. I installed ie6 sp1 but that did not help. I tried uninstalling and re-installing tcp/ip. Now I'm out of ideas!

(also note that MS Outlook will run but not send/receive mail. No errors. Mail just sits in the outbox. I suppect the two problems are releated somehow.)

please help!!!

Thanks much everyone,
--bill
