On Win XP Pro SP2, out of the blue I cant' use IE or email. Here's what I've
done.
1. installed new nic - network browses other PC's fine. I can ping the local
lan and ping the internet - no errors.
2. changed my DNS settings. They match other machines in my lan that can
browse.
3. Deleted the Winsock, Winsock2 registry settings and rebooted and reloaded
TCP/IP.
4. Switched my hard coded IP settings around (192.168.1.14).
5. Reinstalled IE.

It seems I can't use the http protocol for anything (can't even bring up my
firewall home page, although I can ping it.). I want to avoid an OS reload!!!

I have tried Opera - same result. I believe the problem is with the TCP/IP
protocol since I can ping anything.

What I mean is, I can't browse with anything or get email, but I can ping
everything (local lan pc's and internet servers)
