ie won`t get online but foxfire will then ie will

[Jan Clark]

          :-/

I have IE and foxfire on my computer.  

Use dsl with win xp.... I will boot puter up, go to IE and it will not get online, while at the same time I can click on Foxfire and it will get online then go back and click on IE and then it will get online too.. What gives?

It is like IE can`t make the connection but foxfire does and then IE can.

I prefer IE. Can I unload IE and then reload it?
Where would I, and how can I do that ?

Thanks in advance
Jan

you can repair IE by typing in the following at the Run prompt:

rundll32 setupwbv.dll,IE6Maintenance

not sure if this will resolve the problem thoe, but worth a shot.

Jan Clark.....  Do you get any error messages when you attempt to use IE6 ?
Have you run any sort of spyware scanners ?

Have you have the latest updates from M/S for Win XP including SP2 and all the critical updates ?

Is you default browser set as Firefox or IE6?

Let us know
