Network/IE problems
Just developed an odd problem on my home network. I have a wireless network and connect my laptop using a Belkin wireless PCMCIA card. Setup has been fine for a good few months.
Today my wife noticed a problem. If an address is typed into IE (XP) the system will pop up a Dial up networking connection window and then go no further.
If however I click on a Favourite Link, the system surfs to the page no problem.
The systray shows an active Internet Gateway icon etc.
Any ideas?

Seen something like this when i log in to the same pc as a different user. Check control panel - internet connections - connection tab and verify that a dialup connection is NOT the default connection. Should be set to never dial a connection.
Hope it helps
