Internet Sharing connection problems
Here is the case,
I've two computers using Windows ME on both; from the first computer which has the ADSL cable modem attached and it is sharing the internet, I can browse every site I want, but from the second computer I can only browse some sites. I've made a fresh installation on both computers and only the modem drivers were installed (on 1st computer), in order to discard any problem with firewalls, antivirus, and so on. Also I tried changing all the network hardware, I mean NICs and Hub, but I got the same problem, I can surf what ever I want from the first but only some websites from second. I realized that sites like www.symantec.com, www.cai.com, www.microsoft.com can not be browsed from second computer, but websites like namco.com sega.com nintendo.com can be browsed without any problem from 2nd computer. As I Told you on both computers was made a fresh installatiion of WIN ME without any other software only adsl modem drivers on 1st computer. Here is even a more weird thing, I've a third computer but it has WinXP Pro installed and also is sharing the internet (ICS), of course the first computer is left turned off, in this case the second computer can surf the websites that previously It could not, I mean using a Win ME Computer as the internet server. Does any one have any idea whats going on? |

Internet Sharing connection problems
You may have a virus/spyware hijack
download the Stinger from here and run it to make sure that A-V-disabling viruses are not present on your PC http://download.nai.com/products/mca...rt/stinger.exe - update your virus scanner and run a full system scan of all files. Reboot to Safe Mode and run CWShredder - to remove variants of the CoolWebSearch hijacker. http://www.merijn.org/cwschronicles.html Use CWShredder, the removal tool: http://www.merijn.org/files/cwshredder.zip http://www.merijn.org/files/CWShredder.exe http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads...CWShredder.exe http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/CWShredder.zip Try BHODemon - from http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads/bhod/ Download AdAware from www.lavasoftusa.com, install, update, and run it to remove spyware, adware, and other such nasties from your system. (thanks to Graham Womack for the following) Do all this in Safe Mode....... Make a Restore Point - just in case it gets worse. Using Regedit, search for 'Safeguard'. Make a note of the dll name (if there's an entry at all). Run BHODemon. Look for the same dll name The 'Details' key should give you more information about when the entries were loaded. Disable the registry entry. Search your hard drive for the dll file (should be in Windows\System). Rename it and a similar named lib file - change the extensions. Reboot, cross your fingers and try 'My Computer' HTH -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's or http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/f.../Mar27pmvp.asp "mekkano" wrote in message ...
