Same here! Thank-you so much! I've had the odd problem being the client computer
on our network but there were lots of possibles: was our firewall locking me out
of ebay? Was ebay doing what they are often accused of and blocking some IP addresses
so their server didn't go down? Had I messed things up by installing then uninstalling
Greasy Palm's Rebate Catcher? The first two seemed unlikely, as the host computer
could access e-bay no problem and mine, the client, couldn't. So when I came across
your fix I was hopeful. Still, I was nervous to mess with the Registry - but your
instructions were so clear and helpful that it wasn't too scary. And it worked like
a charm!! Now I can get to e-bay, my writers' forum and other sites I've been locked
out of - thank-you, thank-you, thank-you, thank-you, thank you!
