Hi, this is my first post, so bear with me. I found others with a similar problem to mine, and decided to post here. I am unable to use Internet Explorer. Every time I try the same message appears: "Cannot find server or DNS Error." After reading other posts I decided to post my HTJ log here. Any help would be greatly appreciated...
