    Have AOL and use ZoneAlarm. Recently accessed IE and a NET passport deal poped up. Required an e-mail address and a password. Fine. But now I cannot access the Internet unless I turn ZoneAlarm off. Was told this and it worked. Was told I would have to change firewalls which I don't care to. Don't know where this NET stuff come from but I would like to disable same and keep ZA. Thank you.

    Try going into the "Add Remove programs" dialog, and remove anything .net...

    I'm sorry, but that's about all I can think of, since I only use IE for windows update, and even there I do so reluctantly!

    You know, I just moved to FireFox for casual surfing and its miles better at display web pages quickly.

    Gale, have you run SpyBot and Ad-Aware? sounds like you got some spyware or a virus.
