I have Win98SE. If I open up a DOS window, and ping to anything, I get
nothing but timeouts. In Windows, browsing works. I have DSL. I also have
Tiny Personal Firewall. Maybe it's configured wrong, but I do not know what
to change to make it work. Any ideas?

Tony

If you're pinging inside your network, you probably have a misconfigured
firewall. If you're pinging outside your network (like MSN.COM.
MICROSOFT.COM and so on) you probably won't get pinging to work as most
major Web sites block pings.
