I'm running a Windows XP Pro workstation with IE6. My
problem started when I tried to use a google search
engine from Ref Desk, the search would time out. I then
went directly to Google and I can't access Googles site.
I later tried both yahoo and MSN search engines and they
both time out.

I've racked my brain on this one. I can access these
sites from any where else in our agency, all of my
network settings are the same as other pc's in the agency.

One theory is when I had IE 5.5 I played around with the
custimizing of the IE search tool. Each of these sites
that I can't search from where sites that I had set as a
default when using the search tool.

I've tried to reinstall IE6 and the behaivor hasn't
changed. Please advise.

TIA
Eric
