Tgerbs, Nicely done~! The spyware is no longer a problem. Who is your ISP? That answer relates to the protocols one would expect to find in your TCP/IP, and are you saying that the 'only' protocols in your 'network' were Microsoft Client and a 'dialup adaptor' ? And to crystallize your issue: your saying that you can connect with your ISP , and then read/send mail but you cannot connect with any other internet sites, a.k.a. surfing? Do you receive the error message, "this page cannot be displayed?" or "action canceled?" The reason for detail is because I would love to avoid sending you on wild goose chase reinstalling this and that network device, etc, and pin this down specifically. Otherwise it will be to continue trying variations on the above network device issues, Ok, this is important, I see that your using CONFIGSAFE, which is a worthy fail safe program capable of 'restoring' previous settings on your computer. In windows one can choose to restore a previous version of their registry by using Scanreg /restore , but your Configsafe will restore more configurations. So, try it now. There are a couple ways to use it, one is while your in windows, open the software for CONFIGSAFE and click on the restore button, follow instructions, The other way is from DOS, using their SOS emergency tool, for a non-bootable situation, it may seem easier to use the restore feature in windows but if you do this in the DOS mode, you will not have any compatibility issues/error messages for sure. Hence: To use it, boot to the command prompt,(start / shutdown / restart in ms dos) and switch to the CFGSAFE directory. Type the following commands and hit enter after each: cd\ cd cfgsafe sos.exe Run SOS.EXE, and follow the instructions on the screen. When you complete the restore process reboot your machine. And test your connections. One other thing, if for some reason you get error messages like 'bad command/file name' discontinue and post back, The only other issue might be that CFGSAFE is not in c: but in c:\windows, if the above doesn't run then do this> Type the following commands and hit enter after each from the C:\ prompt, cd windows cd cfgsafe sos.exe Run SOS.EXE, and follow the instructions on the screen. When it's finished, reboot your machine. And test your connections. :)

I get my internet from MCLEODUSA I have many protocalls... Client for Microsoft Networks, Microsoft Family Logon, Dial-up Adapter, Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet Adapter, IBM Personal Commucications LLC2 Driver, TCP/IP -> Dial-Up Adapter, and TCP/IP -> Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet Adapter(NC100) I can send/receive emails, and I downloaded the latest virus files for Norton... This PC had a high speed cable modem attached (still have the ethernet card in - don't need it now) and I have connected to work with it via some software (IBM thing) well, I might have clobbered my computer now... I chose factory settings in sos menu and now windows will not come up, ran sos after booting from the startup disk and put back the latest snapshot....ok, back to previous state.... in configsafe, I only have snapshots that are before I upgraged to 98 SE and all dates are after I have had this problem.. so not sure if I should do this.. what do you recommend?

0

Your protocols look ok, but you still might need to reinstall them if there's no progress, ok for now, "I only have snapshots that are before I upgraged to 98 SE and all dates are after I have had this problem" You developed this problem way back when, and then upgraded to 98 to try and fix it. . ? BTY, excellent recovery from the sos situation. Ok, take a look at your IP configurations and lets see if it points to the problem, 2 things to check: a)go to Start / Programs / Ms Dos Mode That will pop up a DOS window, while your still in 'windows', The prompt should be at C:\windows; If it's not type, cd windows and hit enter, From c:\windows type the following exactly ipconfig /all> c:\ipconfig.txt (note the spaces, there's only 2) Now go back to 'windows' and click start / find / ipconfig.txt , you can put that in quotations so it will only find it, Post the whole thing back here, --------- b) run winipcfg In normal windows click on start / run / winipcfg <type what adpator is listed in the tiny window? Click on 'more information' Do you have information for: DNS SERVORS IP ADDRESS SUBNET MASK DHCP ? :)

yup, tried to upgrade to 98 se after this problem existed for a long time (have other computers that still work ;-)) here is the ipconfig output Windows 98 IP Configuration Host Name . . . . . . . . . : DEFAULT DNS Servers . . . . . . . . : Node Type . . . . . . . . . : Broadcast NetBIOS Scope ID. . . . . . : IP Routing Enabled. . . . . : No WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . : No NetBIOS Resolution Uses DNS : No 0 Ethernet adapter : Description . . . . . . . . : PPP Adapter.

Tgerbs, Let me explain what direction this is headed. There are many, many more things to examine and try. I have no problem running through everything until your machine connects to the internet. I just want you to know that may take some time, or it may happen in a flash. You won't be able use system.1st restore as a fix because it will point to the installation of win98's registry and you had the problem already by then. From this point on there is a whole slew of successive matters to fix and analyze. I can do it in this post but if it's ever easier by email let me know, Ok, begin: A) run winipcfg In normal windows click on start / run / winipcfg Click on 'more infor', check that your DNS SERVERS are still not listed, if not, then click 'release all', then click on 'renew', Reboot, go back to 'winipcfg' and click on 'more info', see if it now lists your DNS SERVERS, under 'hosts name' You don't need to post back those numbers, just let me know they exist, because your ipconfig.txt does not show them, Test your internet connection. B) Check this too: Start / run / regedit Follow the pathe of this key> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock2 Navigate by clicking on the +sign for each successive folder till you come to Winsock2 1. Confirm that you have that key 2. Navigate to this sub key> starting with Winsock2 folder, click it's +sign, then open +Parameters, then +Protocol_Catalogue9, then +Catalogue Entries, 3. you should see 5 or 6 folders, how many? Click each folder one at a time, then look at the 'name' in the right pane, right click on that name (the icon) and select 'modify', Now the 'edit binary value' window pops up, Look all the way to the right of the numbers for a windows pathe, it will look like this, C:\windows\system\msafd.dll All I need is the name of the dll file at the end, do this procedure for all, and collect the names of the dll files for all the catalogue entries ,the pathe in the 'edit binary value' window will not appear horizontally, it will be cramped vertically, Take your time, no rush, don't make any other adjustments, then close regedit, Rather than load you down, with more steps, it would be better, to proceed one thing at a time, so after your acknowledgement on the DNS and the Winsock2 key info, I'll give you the next procedure, :)

0

for a) hit more info, still no DNS Servers, I hit the release all then renew all and get this error "32: Renewing adapter" b)all the way downinto the last folder I see 6 numbered (11 zeros) and 1-6 each numbered folder has two items in the right pane, a default which has no entry and a packedCatalogItem which are listed below #1 = c:\windows\system\mswsosp.dll #2 = c:\windows\system\msafddll.l (null value after the mfafddll the the extra l) #3 and #4 are the same as #2 #5 = c:\windows\system\rsvpsp.dll #6 = #5 I have no problem documenting all this in the forum or doing it via email...

Ok, good, Go to Start / Settings / Control Panel / Network Select TCP/IP -DIAL UP ADAPTOR, click Properties. CHECK THAT "OBTAIN AN IP ADRESS AUTOMATICALLY" is checked...click ok, ----------- Msafd.dll is critical for winsock2 and your version is rendered nonfunctional, restore it the same way you did for wsock32.dll, Run the System File Checker Go to Start / Run Type sfc Press Enter Choose "Extract one file..." Type msafd.dll Click Start, and where it says "Restore from" type in C:\windows\options\cabs Where it says "Save file in" Type c:\windows\system Press Enter. If you get a message, "this file already exists, do you want to overwrite?" say YES, Reboot and test, Post back any error messages you may get from using SFC, ---------- Ping Test: Open a DOS prompt, click start / programs / ms dos prompt type and hit enter: ping yahoo.com A lot of lines will float by, but the important one is, do you get 4 packets sent, 4 packets received? or a timeout? then type, ping 66.218.71.114 4 packets sent, 4 packets received? ------------ and test this too, type; ping 127.0.0.1 and hit enter, A successful response will say "4 packets sent, 4 packets received" ------------ Finally; use the tracert command, type and hit enter after this command, tracert 66.218.71.114 How far does it get? You don't have to copy everything, just the number of lines it completes, key words like: failed, complete, unkown host, etc, ------------------------ Another simple thing you can check is this: While online with your pc, type this address in your address bar and try to connect to it, https://amazon.com :443 http://66.218.71.114 ooops, did exactly what I said I wouldn't, way too much info, :)

the obtain ip address was ok, reloaded the dll ok, no errors... rebooted and tested internet ... still the same, got emails but no connection on the browsers... ping tests where all successful, all 4 packets were returned with no time out or packet loss... the tracert took 8 hops and finally got to yahoo.com, no errors only a few ip addresses like unknown.Level3.net [4.68.112.189]... trying to type the port number on the browser had the same effect.. browser finds the site, even said I was being redirected to a different site, but then sat there and no data was transfered....

Hi, Your computer is connecting to the internet successfully, your DUN (dial up networking), TCP/IP protocols, & winsock2 / winsock dll's, are all ok, The problem is with the browser or its settings; During your research have you ever modified Interent Explorer or reinstalled, or repaired it? a) right click 'internet explorer' the desktop icon, choose 'properties', then 'connections' , make sure 'never dial a connection' is checked, if you had to make a change, test your connection, if not > b) Click Start / Settings / Control Panel, and double-click Add/Remove Programs. From the Install/Uninstall tab, click Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, click Add/Remove, click 'Repair the current installation of Internet Explorer', and then click OK. If you cannot find it there, Click Start / Run. In the Open box,copy and paste the following command exactly , then click OK: rundll32 setupwbv.dll,IE6Maintenance "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\Setup\SETUP.exe" /g "C:\WINDOWS\IE Uninstall Log.Txt" Test connections, :)
