This Freeserve window is white and takes up the whole screen with no file-edit-view etc menus at the top. In IE properties I have removed the Freeserve connection leaving only the ADSL available. I have tried making the new user administrator but still the same thing happens. I have also uninstalled the freeserve connection kit. Apologies to non UK people who may not have heard of Freeserve! Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.
I'm working on Win2K right now so I'm flying blind with these commands so if they're not exact, look around a bit.

Somehow, your default user settings have been updated to use this connection. Best bet is to create a brand new user, configure the internet settings the way you want them to work. Log that user off and logon as a user with admin rights. Go to Start, Control Panel, System, Advanced Tab, and click the middle button which should be User Profiles.

Select the User ID that you created and configured. Click the COPY button at the bottom. Copy that user to C:\Documents and Settings\Default User.

Any new users created now will copy the updated default user profile.
