Re: The "Official" SP2 Bug Thread Problem: Internet Explorer -Keeps timing out- unable to connect (Cannot find server), to any website, including Windows Update 
Solution: Use another browser such as FireFox, and enable for Windows Automatic Updates: "Download updates for me, but let me choose when to install them."
Notes: This was a clean install of Windows XP Pro SP2 from a blank hard drive, connected through laptop 10/100 nic NIC is connected to the router, which shares internet access.
Any program except Internet Explorer is able to access the internet. Is also set as the "default application" instead of FireFox. Also have Zone Alarm Free installed- Windows firewall disabled. |
