In reply to your email:

Hmm. Are you surfing from work or home? I am surfing from home.

Do you have a broadband connection? Yes, i have a 512 kps broadband connection.

Do you need to use a proxy server for your desktop's browser
(I'm assuming Internet Explorer). If yes to the proxy server and work
portion, check that on your device that your proxy server setting is
correct. Go to Start->Settings->Connections->Connections and under My Work
Network, tap Edit my proxy server. No I do not connect to a proxy server, just double click on my vroadband Icon and dial up.

When you're having the "page you are looking for cannot be found" errors are
you properly connected with Activesync (as in the icon on the right side is
green not grey)? Yes, the activesync is green, and I can sync with Advantgo, but still no luck when sufing on the PDA.
