IE6 won't connect to internet after computer has been on suspend m
Posted by Harold on October 5th, 2005


I'm haveing problems getting IE^ to connect to internet after bringing my
computerr out of the suspend mode. My Outlook express connects and handles
mail O.K. but IEP can't find the ISP address about 2/3 of the time. After
rebooting or restoring to a prior restore point, - - everything is fine
untill I have suspended. If I don't suspend and just let the screen saver
work, - -it stays O.K. Thanks for any and all help. Harold

Do you have any proxy-based spyware or antivurs packages running, like Avast
or another product? It is possible the local proxy server is not coming back
online.

Thanks, Dave;
I'm beginning to think that ZoneAlarm is doing it, although I have been
running ZoneAlarm for a couple of years with no problem, and now this problem
for the past 3-4 weeks. Through the process of eliminations, I will
eventually find it I guess. - - -I hope!
