IE not connecting with AOL installed

by shortstuff . Updated 20 years, 4 months ago

Hi I recently setup a home network for a customer using 2 XP machines ( all sevice pks and updates installed) a laptop and a dynamode R-ADSL-C4W-G adsl router/access point. he has a AOL account which once configured allowed all of the machine to acess the internet using AOL’s browser. They can all talk to each other and use a networked printer so I know the network is fine. However, the cutomer wants to use IE for checking his bank details etc, which AOL’s browser wont allow. The thing is IE will not connect to the internet. Ive altered the settings in ‘connections ‘ to ‘never dial a connection’ and ‘dial whenever a network conn. is not present ‘ but that makes no difference. I’ve also tried it with the internat firewall dissabled, but again no joy. On another note, a couple of anti virus programs dont connect to the net to update either.
Anybody got any idea’s?
many thanks
glenn
