When trying to connect to the internet the program goes
through a series of web sites that can not be accessed
and just keeps going through them one at a time. This
doesn't allow me to put a web page in and it would bring
up my home page. These sites are the same all the time.
What has happened to my IE? I uninstalled it and then
reinstalled it and it still does it. I am using Windows
XP home edition.
 
I am having the same problem with Win. 2000, It started
right after I uninstalled 'Imesh' from that computer.
Did you make any drastic changes? I have not got the
problem resolved yet.
 
Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit(s) is/are with
these tools.

Try this fix. This will unregister the vx2.dll which may be still present.
If all is well and the vx2.dll is still in your computer rename it vx2.old
which you can delete in a few days if all is well.

Subject: I have a very annoying problem. I'm not sure how to explain it.
Here's an example of the problem.
Say I'm reading some news article, I open up a new web page to go to a
different site, when the new page gets down loading it switches me from my
current page to the new page I opened.
So it is not going over the existing page, but switching to the newly opened
page. This is very annoying when I have multiple sites, or a site that
refresh every so often and I'm reading an article.

Solution: I had the same problem after installing iMesh. Even after the
removal of it, that irritating behavior was still persistent. Upon doing a
dump of all dlls in use, I found that there was a DLL called VX2.dll which
was like a defunct process, not being used at all, so all I did was:
regsvr32 /u VX2.dll
