    hey its me once again

    well my comps runnin fine, but theres 1 problem, its my internet explorer..i dont use it at all, but i need it to b able to use windows live messenger, the problem is it says there is no connection with ie to the internet! its like theres no connection at all, everytime i try to browse a webpage it says "cannot find server" and my windows live messenger gives out "error - 80048820". i dont know whats wrong with it, because my mozzila works just fine, is there anyway i can switch the programs that use ie to connect with mozilla? if not then how can i fix the problem i already have!!

    thanks in advance

    Live messenger doesn't work without IE being online..from what I read anyway (scabby M$ junk)..try something like trillian..same functions and will run on the same servers. I usually install FF and trillian on M$ machines that come for service. The free one is fine. http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/downloads/

    ie not connecting..sounds like a firewall issue or something like that..who cares??

    BTW there are about 5000 security advisories for live messenger at the moment.
