Broken browser...

I just upgraded Netscape to version 6.2 & I get this error message whenever I try to use the browser:

ALERT! The connection was refused when attempting to contact home.netscape.com.

The browser doesn't work at all - no matter what. I get that message before I even get to run the program. Any URL I enter into
the browser returns the same error message (substituting that address instead of Netscape's home page address.)
Uninstalling and reinstalling it didn't help. Getting a fresh new download didn't help either. I even tried using different browsers to download it, tried contacting Netscape but they didn't actually address the problem. I also tried replacing Zone Alarm with another similiar anti-hacker app after someone suggested that ZA could be the culprit.
Any sugestions?
[I'm running WinME & use MSN Explorer to connect to the net.]

 

Hi Todd,

Windows ME users tend to have this problem more than others. Try creating a new Users Profile and see if it helps.

Post back and let us know if this helps.

Broken browser...Not anymore!

Ramona, thanks! It works perfectly! I'm new to the BBS but you must be the Netscape expert that they claim you are.
Thanks again, Todd

 

Good news!

Hi Todd,

Glad to hear that you are up and running.
