My 72 year old father has a Windows XP machine. He recently switched to HughesNet for his internet provider. He normally accesses the internet around 4:00 AM during HughesNet's free download period. He has begun receiving a Web Acceleration Client Error 509.2 and his access has greatly diminished. He still has practically 100% of his allotted download remaining. Is there anyone out there familiar with this error and can you give me some tips to fix it for him? Thanks
 
I have heard of this error pop up but it wasnt allowing MSN I think to communicate fully. From what I was told, the fix around was that the browser's LAN setting needed to be changed to "Dont use a proxy" and that fixed all their issues. Should be under "Tools", "Internet Options" and depending on what browser he is using look for a "Connections" tab.
Worth a shot

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it tonight.
