Guest PT Posted October 1, 2007 Posted October 1, 2007 I have a computer which uses WinXP Home and IE6, and is configured for two users. There's a DSL router, but no other firewall. The main user's internet connections work fine. But the secondary user's settings have a problem. For the secondary user, only certain websites can be accessed. For example, I can log into Google, but the result of any search is an error message to the effect that there's a problem with the internet connection. In some cases, such as Drudge Report, I can get an abbreviated web site, but with no pictures, and whose internal links produce the same error message as above. When I run Tools | Diagnose Network Settings, I get a long error log which references problems with the HTTP connection and error # 12029 I assume that internet settings are separately set for each user. But how can I examine each to compare, and then where would I make the changes? -- PT

Run... netsh diag gui Also there is a new troubleshooter you may find helpful: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/pc_ie_intro Good luck Robert Aldwinckle ---
