The basic problem is that I can ping, DNS, DHCP, file
share, etc. but can't browse to the outside. I've
reinstalled and upgraded the browser to IE6. But that
didn't help any.
User brought me his box. Typical home PC. Tons of junk
installed. Running like a pig. It's not being properly
maintained. The user came to me cause his IE4 no longer
works. I cleaned up his machine, removed all the
extrainious programs from his startup, removed adware and
all that good stuff. Couldn't figure out his IE problem.
Did a technet search and came up with this:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;194625&Product=msie5
Before upgrading to IE6 this was the exact error message I
got. However The devices tab is on NT boxes, not 98/2K
boxes. Does anyone know if AFD Networking is found on 98
boxes? Device Manager doesn't make any mention of the AFD
Networking Support Environment. After the upgrade it
doesn't give any error messages, but it still doesn't go
anywhere.
Since it wants me to alter devices so that it is automatic
startup. I can only assume they are referring to some
sort of service. Does Win 98 use services? If so how do
I alter them?
Any advice on this problem, or the original problem(IE
can't get out) would be greatly appreciated.
