    Repair option not available for dial-up, doesn't even show up. Repair for 1394 connection chosen but came up with error ".....TCP/IP not enabled for this connection. Cannot proceed......". On choosing options however, there is a tick in the "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) box. Local Area connex repair option still grayed out.

    D/loaded Winsock and chose "FIX". Rebooted and no change to report of the problem.

    I'm sorry for all this inconveniance Lonny

    Sorry Lonny I'm not sure. Bit above my techinical now-how. Even this stuff we are doing here feels "cutting-edge" to me. All I know is that it's a built in firewire connector. Something to do with video input ? IEEE1394 host controller according to the manufacturers website

    Aha..... success !!

    "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage... yada yada yada "

    Thank you very much Lonny for your patience and for solving this pesky problem. Now my kids can do their homework without me having to babysit them in case they spell an address wrong and take it to that blasted website.

    How the heck did those ip's get there

    Fantastic

    Normaly that would have shown in your Hijackthis logs or winsockfix should have helped, it was a leftover from the wareout/dns hijack.
