    Hi,
    I was wondering if someone could help me with this. I have Windows XP pro, with separate windows set up for me and each of my two children. Each is set up as an administrator, however, the internet will only work on my screen. It signs on on all three, but netscape and internet explorer both time out on their screens. Can someone help?
    Thanks guys....

    Have you tried pointing the browsers to the connection in the other users? You did say they were connecting right? does anything else internet related work? mail, IM, Anti-virus update, Firewall, etc...?

    The internet signs on just fine on all three screens, but nothing else internet related, msn, yahoo messenger, internet explorer, or netscape, works on their screens, only on mine.

    Sorry, that is over my head :( , never had that problem with Pro. Had similar issues with Home Edition, but only with limited account, changing to admin account resolved all but installation troubles. Anyway, be patient and someone more knowledgeable will be along soon :)
