Is Something Wrong With Me Or Net?

Have you tried a system restore to some point a few days ago ?

There is also this you can try if you can download it...

Unzip, run the utility and click to fix the winsock layer.


Also do you have an xp cdrom and msn messenger ?

hi hon ,,,, first of all ,, I just spent considerable time with my user trying to figure things out ,, they reset some things and I tried again and again and still the same.

Restore point? No I have not ,, didnt think of that - should I try that before I run this utility ( which I was able to download ) ???

Yes ,, I have windows xp ,, cd rom and msn messenger

ok ....mobo .... it is the same problem whether I am my computer or on my daughters ((??)) -that is why i figured it would have something to do with my server. .....anyway I just did a system restore on my daughters computer and it doesnt change anything .....this is so weird

[der]

so .... now ..... while I am on my daughters computer, I ran the utiltity that you suggested, on MY computer ,,, as soon as it is finished re-booting, I will switch computers and try againn- will let you know

[der]

ok ,.... am back on my puter - ran your utility ,, no change. I can get her, I can get to my google gmail account ,, but nothing msn related ,, nothing yahoo related. And ,, my zone alarm ,, you know when you get a security alert that says it just blocked something?? and then you can click on the icon for more info ,,, I cant get where it takes you to get that info, either

Ok, multiple computers and the same result. Do you have a router or something that enables the two computers.

In answer to your question about the routers no ,,,,
BUT ,, everything works now! Go figure.
The fact that it was both computers giving the same problem led me back to thinking it was my server, even though they said no, it was not. SO ,,, I had to go into town ,, went to the school where hubby works and tried their computer ( which is DSL ,, I am dial up ) and ,, lo and behold ,, the same thing happened there! Finding that, I figured when I returned home, I would call my server yet again :blablabla: and question this. But, when I got home and tried my computer ,,, everything works again! :eusa_clap: I am assuming that means it was my server in the very first place. You think?
I'm sorry Mobo ,, one ,, for not getting back here quicker but I had 7 clients to attend to before I could ,, and two ,, for taking up your time when all the time my server was to blame. I figure your time is a bit more valuable than that - so hope I didnt take you away from something.
I appreciate you being here tho ,,, I would have been having bigger fits had I not had somewhere to go and question things (((hugs)))~der~ :tiphat:
