Any suggestions to fix or at least prove which it is?	Guest (0)

Start> Programs > MS DOS prompt. In the box type: C:\WINDOWS>ping 107.0.0.1 If all the packets return ok then try your ISP eg: C:\WINDOWS>ping www.paradise.net.nz or: C:\WINDOWS>ping 203.96.152.127 (which is the numeric address for pardise). If you lose packets or time out pinging your ISP or another site then the problem is any where from your lines to your ISP or the site your trying to access. Also have a look at support.microsoft.com and related articles. HTH Murray P	Guest (0)
