XP Home & IE

[Lee]

I have an XP home box that is not able to get on the
internet. I can ping and run trace route to the internet
sites (www.yahoo.com for example) but it will not open a
webpage. I am getting no errors on my ethernet card and
have run Network setup wizard multiple times. ICS is not
on.

So far I have tried with both static and DHCP addresses.
Run MSCONFIG and disabled the startup items, reset the
default route with "netsh int ip reset" and reloaded IE
6.0 SP1 from IEAK build. I even ran "route -f" to force a
reset of the default route.

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated?

Thanks,
Lee
