Strange problem with IE and LAN settings.
I looked at a friends computer who has been having trouble trying to connect to the internet via a wireless connection on a WIN98 machine. The wireless connection works fine but they have no internet connection. (Which did work fine for months until now)
When I go into Tools>Internet Options>Connections under IE and click on the LAN settings, "Use a proxy server" and automatically detect settings" are ticked.
But here is where it gets wierd. When I untick these and click apply>ok Internet Explorer shuts down. On restarting IE I find that these settings are ticked again.
As we are not using a proxy server Im sure that If I can untick these options the internet will work again as it once did.
