   I have recently set up a small P2P home network using an XP, W2K and an ME   
   machine. The W2K machine is the internet sharing computer. At one point in   
   time I had things all working, but for some odd reason while the W2K machine   
   continues to work just fine, the XP and ME machines both seem to have a   
   problem displaying an internet page.   
      
   What happens is this:  I start explorer on either the XP or ME machine and   
   do something that requires an internet resource - say, MS Update - the W2k   
   machine dials, the website connects and the explorer claims it's downloading   
   various items, and finally says it's done. But then it doesn't display   
   anything. It just sits there with a blank screen.   
      
   Any ideas? This one's got me baffled.
