First a quick thanks to Elizabeth, Jonathan, Ben and all the others who responded.  That was
exactly what I needed.  When I upgraded Netscape to 4.5, it overwrote the search settings for
IE.  I left it for a week or so, 'cause I thought it quite funny that MS would load a
Netscape page.  [big grin]  But everything is back to normal now.

And now on to Paul's question.....

Paul, if you are not connected to a real network, then you should only see one instance of
the NETWORK key and all it's values should be empty or "not set".  I'm reasonably certain
that you can delete all the extras.
