Well guys here i am again in need of the communities help. I have two running computers right now. One just a regular Win98 box and the other a laptop running win98. They are both plugged into a hub which is plugged into my dsl modem. The box gets internet fine which is how im on it right now. But the laptop is having trouble. When IE is searching for a web site it will say at the bottom: finding site: and then give me the websites IP adress. but it wont go any further. I assume this means i have some sort of connection to the net if im able to see a remote IP adress. But im stumped. Any help?
