It's extremely unlikely that your router's IP is 192.168.0.50 - it's more
likely to be 192.168.0.1
try that, and see what happens

this is what the problem pc is like,
the router is ok at 192.168.0.50
when i put 192.168.0.50 into my browser it says
'internet explorer could not open the search page'
if i type 'http://192.168.0.50' it ignores it.
if i ping 192.168.0.50 at commant propt, it shows good connect figures,
i tried putting on firefox & ie6, its still the same!!
