Hey people hope you can help me, or my mate, out here with this problem.
My friend is running windows xp and has a dial-up internet connection. He seems to be able to connect to the internet ok and can use messenger but he is unable to view webpages. What i mean is the page appears to be "loading" in the progress bar but seems to go on for eternity and never actually loads any page. I look forward to hearing your ideas as i cannot be tolerate his whining on msn any longer.
Cheers in advance.

perhaps the page you are trying to view requires java virtual machine to view things correctly? if so, download it at http://java.sun.com/getjava/download.html

Jakamanstyle,
do you know if his ISP requires that DNS be hardcoded or do they assign one to them ? does he have any type of firewall running ? does he have his IE settings configured ?
