The wifes' pc is identical except she only has 40gb drive.
The problem is evident in IE as well as Netscape. It seems that ANY secure type page throws up. I just tried to get 'My Ebay', but 'The connection was refused when trying to contact signin.ebay.co.uk'
There are no error numbers showing when IE tries, just 'Cannot find server or DNS' at the bottom of the page.
It is getting close to the point where the Windows CD comes out and I get loads of drive space back for a few weeks.....
