 Thats how its listed..     online.winserver.com  
 
I can do better than ping it I can get here with my web browser and login.
BTW I don't dial in. I have a cable modem connected but this problem first
surfaced about 1 year ago while I was connecting to the internet thru erols.
I was given loads of workarounds thru the newsgroups including one
suggestion to install the nav in safe mode. Nothing has worked for me. I'm at a
 total
loss. I know that I'm not alone though just from reading the newsgroups I
could tell there were tons of problems concerning the nav and win98. Will
there be a new version of the nav with Wins2000? If so I may just wait till
that
comes out.
