I have recently uninstalled Checkpoint Intregrity Agent, and associated VPN
software. So now my PC is back to a "standard" home working setup.
I can access my ISP mailserver via Outlook. I can access MSN. I can access
HTPPS sites (such as my bank).
However I cannot access regular HTTP sites.
I suspect this is some detailed configuration from the Checkpoint software
disablng this unless I was logged into the corporate network.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks

=> Before we go further are you connecting by Router or Modem, in either try
to
Power or unplug the Power cord for the Router/Modem for about 40 seconds or
so be generous with it <g> turn the computer OFF and wait for the time to go
by!!.
Then Turn the Router/Modem ON and wait a minute or so then Power ON the
computer and try to establish a connection and try the link, does it work?.
If still then continue the heavy work:
Open windows Explorer and locate the Hosts file and Rename it to Hosts.OLD
Reboot the machine and try, does it work.
If not try this:
search for them by this name *index.dat* and you can delete them
then the on reboot the system will recreate them for you.
Some of them here:
C:\Documents and settings\Administrator\Cookies = index
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Cookies = index
C:\Documents and settings\User\User data = index
C:\Windows\Temp\Cookies =index
C:\Windows\Temp\History = index
C:\Windows\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 = Index.dat
Reboot your machine and see if this helped.
Check your connection (TCP/IP setting) are set correct.
