are both computers connected to the net?? are you using ICS?? why are you using the proxy settings in IE ... are you running a proxy server??
 
response

only main machine connected to net via a broadband modem ics is running via modem on main machine. using proxy settings because automatically detect did not work.have tried freeproxy
 
You need to set the default gateway on the machine that does not have the internet connection to the ip of the machine that does.
 
success

Already tried gateway IP. Have successfully applied SP4 and on the reboot iexplorer works OK. many thanks for your responses.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
