| 82153 | 2002-09-22 23:29:00 | Running W95, IE5, some web sites do not connect. tracert.exe indicates that the target is reached, but there is no connection. Any clues? |

| 82156 | 2002-09-23 10:31:00 | I had this problem very recently. All attempts by ISP helpdesk to get me back on failed. What I did was to restore the system files from a recent backup I had created and bingo! my old icon for the dial-up was back and I was connected again. Hope this helps. |

Make sure "always dial my default connection" has the dot in it. Click Apply Click on Settings.(Under Add/Remove) Remove the tick from any boxes on this page, especially Proxy server. Click Okay Click on the Advanced tab at the top Click on Restore Defaults at the bottom Click on OK Close Internet Explorer |
