As many of you already know, I have a LOT of difficulty with this damn computer of mine.

Lately it's been fantastic, since I installed WinXP.

Only problem is, I've changed to DSL at the same time, and now I have trouble opening pages now and then...

I get this message whwn I try to go to the ar15.com photos section:

Click the  Back button to try another link.



Cannot find server or DNS Error
Internet Explorer[/b]




I'm not sure if I have Internet explorer set up correctly, and if not, I don't know how to fix it...
I also have Norton Internet Security installed, but I don't think that's the problem, because everything else seems OK...


I need step-by-step instruction on how EXACTLY to configure my DSL modem / ethernet card / Internet explorer stuff...

That's not your computer, unless the ar15.com photoserver has been fixed.
If it _has_ been fixed, hit CTRL+F5 on your keyboard to try and force a refresh.

Oh crap...

You mean the photo server IS down ???

I've been screwing with all kinds of settings thinking it was at my end...

Hope I didn't mess anything up. [:D]

Photo Server is still down. It has been down for a few days. XP seems to be a solid OS. They could take out some of the bloat.
