Can ping sites, but not http to them
This is a spinoff from my thread "Network connection on
Win98SE machine keep failing." I just noticed today that, after IE loses touch on this machine with the net, I can still go to DOS command mode and ping various sites that answer pings, such as yahoo.com and the office supply chain at staples.ca So what does it mean if I can ping a site, but not http to it? Where should I look for the failure? Thanks for any thoughts. |
