Irongeek,

Here is one box. Now the connection isn't set up right now, I am re-routing the cable. Does it make a difference? Antway I will be able to get the other box's results soon. Thanks for...

Thanks all for the replys, I am using a firewall. The XP firewall is up and I am using zonealarm on the 98se boxes. The firewall has not stopped me from getting the internet on the one 98 se box.

SDK,
What I have is an XP machine hooked up to the internet via dial up, and a router connecting the other machines to the net by way of the XP machine. I think I had an ethernet card go bad...

Maybe I miss understood you. I thought that you wanted to add another HD to support another OS. If you have a large enough HD and if storage isn't a problem then Partition Magic meets your needs.

For what it is worth, Partition Magic will negate the need for the second hard drive as long as your hard drive is large enough to support the extra partition. I was always paranoid about possible...

Thanks for the help. I am still having some problems like being able to see the network but that is probably because I don't have sharing set up right. I am able to get internet through the other 2...

Hi All,
I was told that I could set up a network using a DSL router even though I don't have DSL(it isn't available where I live), I was under the impression that all I had to do was connect all...

Thanks for all the insight please feel free to add more comments, like I said I have never used anything in...

I am really new with networking and anything other than dial up so I have a quick question about broadband internet. Finally I will have an alternative to dial up internet available. I am pretty...

Thanks, I run win 98 on my box, this is wifes machine so I was not really sure.

I have noticed that on one of my machines the password that I dial up with is different from the one that I put in there. I can connect with either one though. The second password is 5 charactors...

Thanks Goozle, will check these sites out.

I am stuck with a 56k dial up, usually I can connect @ 50666bps, however there is a tremendous amount of lag time when I am surfing. I have used a DUN optimizer but can't see any positive results. ...

Some viruses will attack your (bugbear) norton or other AV and not allow the update, you have to manually download the updates.

I absolutely believe in buying American goods, but I had to ask as there maybe something there that is perfectly legal here but just not available as an American product.

I am going to Japan soon and was wondering if there is any software/hardware that I can pick up there that maybe difficult to get here. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN PIRATED GOODS! So please don't suggest...

Works for me, was a little slow loading but it did load.

Seems like an awful lot of security for a computer in your bedroom. Who else do you share your bedroom with?

Is it possible for a single program such as comet cursor to drop more than 1 spyware reference on to a computer? I thought it was really cool a couple years ago until I ran ADAWARE and came up with...

I concur with allenb1963, I used a regcleaner today and took out the garbage, about 1 gig

I like zone alarm best but it seems to pick all the background noise that sygate never did. However I turn off the notification and trust the logs. I would rather have the background noise and all...

Hi
