Problem with Internet connection, help please
First off I don't understand why Microsoft had to mess with this feature. Why if I'm the only one using this computer do I need another account. If I'm logged on as Administrator, I can access the Internet just fine. If I try to log on using the other account I can't open IE8. I can log onto the ISP ok, but I get a message that my Earthnet cable is not working. Maybe that's because I don't have an Earthnet connection. I have a dial-up modem.
I even set up a second Administrative account but I can't get any further with that than the regular account. it too tells me my Earthnet connection is broken.
Any ideas on how to correct this problem????
