| 271531 | 2004-09-12 06:12:00 | When I was using IE, I used to click on the IE icon and Internet Explorer and the connect dialog box would come up together. I assumed this was normal. Why do you connect up first? Marg. |

| 271533 | 2004-09-12 07:36:00 | Have you tried repairing IE?? Go to Add/Remove Programs, select Internet Explorer and click Add/Remove. You should get a dialog box asking whether you want to repair. |

| 271534 | 2004-09-12 07:40:00 | What happens if you don't connect to your ISP and just click a browser icon for IE? If it opens then click the read mail icon? For IE have you checked out Tools > Internet Options > Connections? What radio button is selected? Never etc, Dial etc or Always etc? |
