I have two computers running win98 with a cable modem utilizing a netgear firewall/print server. My laptop accesses the net without a problem, my desktop however, can only access one page. Whenever I try to go to another page it won't load. I can download files, as long as they're on the 1st page. I've tried connecting directly to the modem, but the problem persists. Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

Have you tried disabling the firewall and connecting to the internet? Maybe its a firewall configuration problem.

Other than that, it sounds like it could be an IE problem. Try re-installing the OS and updating IE, see if that fixes the problem.
