-=PCTechTalk=- Re: internet access sign in question and outlook express question

Hi Gman,

Did all you said, Earthlink was set as default.  I am not sure how to fix it 
like it was which is what I want.  Now when I click on my IE icon on my 
desktop, it shows up page cannot be displayed.  Before I took it to moms 
house and used high speed with the computer I would click on the IE icon on 
desktop and it looked like it displayed the cox cable home page and had a 
login window for me to sign in even though I was here and on dial up.  I 
liked that sign in better as it did not attach the earthlink tool bar and 
slow things down as much even though I was still using dial up.  Does this 
make sense to you?  I think I changed the OE password ok though now for the 
cox.net account.
