Thank you, thank you, thank you.
We did complete shut down, power supply to modem, router, shut down both
computers. reconnected power, started my desktop, went in and disabled
firewall, anti-virus. Then went to Start: Run: cmd-ok, ipconfig/flushdns.
Message was dns was flushed. Then went on line, got right to web sites that
had been having problems with. Then my son turned on his laptop, connected
to internet and walla, and it even cleared up his problem with his MSN
messenger, hotmail. He could see he had email but could not access it. Now
he's in there reading everything that has accumalated over the past 2 weeks.
That really did the trick!!
Thanks again.
