Hi Sven,
Thanks for this. I uninstalled the PeoplePC software. I had already
manually set up the Internet connection. That removed the peoplepc menu
bar from IE. I still, however, was getting the "This page cannot be
displayed" error on everything selected in Internet Explorer. I think
went in under the "Tools" menu in IE, under "Internet Options" and setup
a new connection to peoplepc. That worked fine and IE is working
again. One thing strange, though, is that IE will not work with any
other connection other than the one I just configured, even though a
connection to peoplepc existed before I set this one up and still
exists. As best I can tell, both the new and the old DUN setups are
identical. I don't know what has happened there.
Anyway, my thanks to you and all the others that replied. It seems to
be working properly now and the peoplepc menu bar is gone.
