Check the proxy settings.

I ran into a similar problem with IE6. I couldn't re install it until I went into the registry and changed a cryptic registry entry from "1" to "0", I believe it had something to do with whether IE6 was installed or not.

I found my answer at http://www.theeldergeek.com

The dude is amazing. He knows Windows better than Microsoft

Give the site a look, you'll find all sorts of goodies there

The user wants to use IE7 because he is more comfortable with IE 7

Fire fox he has not used before and does not wants to use it either..

Yes it had IE 6 before and right now after my installation and reinstallation it was still not working

Any ways i reinstalled the whole OS againt and installed the IE 7 seperately and now finally its working fine

Thanks for the above help

I hate when people claim they don't want to use firefox for that reason--seriously I don't even know why people still use IE--what is so hard about switching to ff? there is no learning curve involved, it is safer, more customizable, and faster!

Again, have you checked the proxy settings?

...and Opera is safer than FF. It's also easier to use, IMO.
