Thank you, thank you, thank you thank you!!!!
It is a few days I try to restore the Internet connection to my kids
PC - network connection to other computers worked, but the Internet
connection was dead.
I tied to reintall Windows, network, to use Netscape, Mozilla, prayed
to Allah and Jesus, sticked neddles into Bill Gates doll and nothing
helped.
I followed your instructions and HAVE THE FRICKEN INTERNET AGAIN!!!!
Thanks again,
