I upgraded by VISTA August CTP installation to RC1. The upgrade was
successful except one major problem. I can not access most of the websites. A
few websites load fine but the others return with an error" website not
found".
I tried using IE and Opera and the behavior is the same.



In that case the problem involves your OS and its networking
more than it does IE7. E.g. it could indicate a performance
problem with your DNS. At least that's the first thing that I would
check. If that's all it is you may be able to work around it by testing
the necessary lookups and caching them manually (e.g. via ping -n 1
in a cmd window).


Please help.



Give a specific site that you are having trouble with

I have the same trouble. For example, go.microsoft.com and www.google.com
returns "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" while other sites show
up w/o any problem. I also couldn't activate my installation, probably for
the same reason. All this only on RC1, didn't have that on previous Beta2 or
current XP on same machine.

Hi...


I am from Brazil and have the same problem.
The DNS of my provider is 201.10.1.2 and in my computer usin windows XP it
work but in windos Vista RC1 no. I try ping this address in command prompt
but he don't reply.... Also i create a inbound and outboun rules in Windows
Firewall to private and public networks and nothing. I try turn off the
firewall too, but with no success.
For information, my adsl modem (running at 600Kbp/s) is a DSL500G in router
mode.

I think the next step is come back to XP.... (lol)

Thank's

The problem seems to be in Vista's Marvell Yukon NIC driver. I switched to my
second NIC (Realtek RTL8139/810x) and now everything works perfectly.

This one gave me probs as well , but it wasnt the site coding that caused it
I have a Marvell Yukon eternet controller , changed the driver to their
Vista Beta driver (on the their site) and now its working fine.
This problem could cause a lot of probs if its not corrected before Vista
goes public

I am having a similar problem with RC1.(Build 5600-16384)
I can connect to the internet via the LAN and router, but the only site that
will connect is Google.
I can send mail via SMTP but cannot receive it via POP.

I have tried two different routers, same results, the routers cannot be
accessed via the web interface but they can be pinged ok, I can also Telnet
to them.
The network interface is the onboard SIS900 using the Vista driver.
Regards
Brunel

I have no trouble accessing it with Windows XP IE6

I have had no trouble with any other sites, so far.
