Internet Explorer Connection Issue I have been having issues with Internet Explorer 6.0,
When ICQ is accessed on the computer Internet explorer fails to recognize the modem. It gives the message regarding a failure to detect the internet connection with the options of retrying or working offline. When I click retry, it loads and works properly, but each time I open a new IE browser I run into the sam proble.
I am using Sympatico high speed edition and in the Internet Setting option it does not recognize the modem. The internet works fine except for this problem.
Any ideas?

Is this a dial-up connection? Are you connected and doesn't recognize the fact that you are connected?

I would assume so. It's Bell Sympatico High Speed Edition.
I believe that is the issue, but I don't understand why the message appears. Now when I click the retry button I just have to do it once. Then the internet works fine until I shutdown and turn it on again. I don't get why it doesn't recognize it the first time but it does afterwards.
And I don't get what ICQ has to do with this. I just have to open up the program to cause this problem. But if I repair/reinstall Internet Explorer then it goes away. But if I open ICQ then the problem reappears.

What version of windows are you running? This sounds like a problem with either your dial up networking settings, or your internet connection/internet connection wizard settings.

Another thing you can try for experimental purposes is the CD-bootable Knoppix Linux (see my sig). It works well with my SBC/Yahoo! DSL and includes the Linux version of GAIM, as well.
