I seem to have the same error, i am running windows XP with a broadband connection. I have internet connection sharing set up, and when trying to load a web page using ie 6.01 i get this error. In the task bar i noticed it was trying to connect via my connected computer, even though this is the one with the connection, when trying to upgrade, add a service pack it cannot initialize the setup as it cannot connect. In the tools connections tabs i have no settings saying dial up through my lan?? I am stuck i can connect with netscape and to be honest i am beginning to prefer it, problem is there are a few sites that only support ie, so i am stuck, any suggestions will be gladly accepted. regards
