Greetings All!

I'm running XP Home & IE6 died today. Can't access anything - either typing
or favorite. I know I'm connected because I'm also running FireFox - have
been & have had no problems. Both were running fine until today. IE "can't
find server."

Registry prob?

TIA

**Won't upgrade to IE7 - been there,done that - too buggy/crash prone. Hell
no, I won't go ;) **

Use Firefox.

May be simple.

It may be a settings issue.
The first thing I do is check Tools-Internet Options-Connections
tab-LAN Settings and ensure "Use a proxy server...." is not checked.
(Mine resets occasionally, particularly after a power break or reset)

Not sure if this will work, but...

In IE6, click on Tools, click on Internet Options, click on Advanced and
click on Reset.

I use Firefox because it is more secure, faster and stable. Also open source.

Define "no longer works" and "can't access anything." Post any errors in
their entirety.

Firefox will give your cat warts. If you don't have a cat, you may be okay.
