Pancake Posted 17 June, 2010 Share Posted 17 June, 2010 Looking at the M-I-Ls laptop as she cant get IE to access the internet. Ive had a play and I can get her email client to d/l messages, WU can poll the MS server for updates; but neither IE or FF (which Ive installed) can connect to any web page. Any ideas?

Pancake Posted 17 June, 2010 Author Share Posted 17 June, 2010 I have mine off as a rule anyway..... me too, but last time I turned them of for her all I got was "why it is saying I'm not protected properly... blah blah blah". NIS 2010 installed, seems to have solved the "issue". **** bit of software, AVG when this subscription expires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
