I can ping any ip from a command prompt.
If going to a page from "favorites", it will put the proper address in the "address" box, but it throws up the "can't find server or DNS error" page. If I enter an address such as "www.excite.com" (without the
http://), I get a "Red X" error box saying, "Internet Explorer could not open the search page".
If I attempt to open the search page, I get the same "DNS error" page.
