Hello All.
Wonder if anyone can help me. My son is having problems loading web pages.Every time he gets a message "Web site found awaiting reply." Sometimes a message comes up "Detecting proxy settings" Hope someone may be able to help.
Cheers Norman.

My guess would be his proxy settings? Is it networked? If so wireless or wired, or is it plugged into broadband/ Pay As You Go?
What ISP?

Thanks Adam for replying to my sons problem.He tried the proxy settings but to no avail.He has now taken his computer into a local shop.They reckon it is only settings and hope to sort it quite quickly.
Cheers Norman.

IT could be your network? If so do you have one?
Again it could be the ISP, especially if you have broadband as there MUST be filters in every single phone jack coming in to your house. Even if they have nothing attached! There are countless broadband problerms solved by this (and don't go for cheap ones either). If it's dial up then I'm not sure but, if you can we will solve your problem more with the details above.
