I am running XP with SP2. Sometimes and very randomly, I seem to lose
connection wth the internet only in web browsers. If I open IE 6 with my
homepage set to MSN, I get Opening http://207.68.172.234 in the status bar
of IE.
I have tried to flush the DNS cache with no luck and renewing my IP address.
I am not able to ping msn.com, but I am able to ping www.yahoo.com.
However, if I try to go to yahoo in IE 6, it will not open. I only get
Opening http://[ip address].
Thought that it might be associated with IE, so I installed Netscape and had
the same issue. Some days it does not happen, some it happens about every
1-1.5 hours.
Rebooting is the only thing that takes care of this.
Any thought would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
