Guest ggoin Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Hi all. I don't even know which group to post this. I have winxp with sp2. I can't connect to microsoft sites (updates, hotmail, etc. ) Most sites load great with my cable internet. I formatted my drive and started fresh with a new xp install, with no change. I thought it might have been IE7, so I tried IE6. No change there, either. If anyone has suggestions, or which group to ask for help, I welcome replies. My big hang up is that my flight sim 9 suddenly quits (just disappears). Thanks.
Guest Jim Skrydlak Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 RE: oh my, now what? It's just possible that your ISP is inadvertently blocking the Microsoft sites. We had this problem at my employer a couple of months ago - couldn't reach either Microsoft or Yahoo! sites. Our facetious first guess was that it was a Google plot. "ggoin" wrote: > Hi all.

Have you checked for errors in your event logs? -- Priceless quotes in m.p.w.vista.general group: http://protectfreedom.tripod.com/kick.html "Fair use is not merely a nice concept--it is a federal law based on free speech rights under the First Amendment and is a cornerstone of the creativity and innovation that is a hallmark of this country.
