Dear Mary - I am using Mac OS 9 on the old Bondi IMac, which has an internal modem. I have never had a problem before with the Internet. But I did change servers from gtn to rogers, and because we couldn't hook up my husband's machine to the system we decided to try High-Speed DSL. Unfortunately this didn't work either, as we couldn't get the modem to work - some problem with wirin - so we decided to stick to the dial up, which we arranged through gtn. However, I think the server is now DSL, so perhaps that's the problem. When I checked the Internet in the Control panels for Web, it reads as follows: Default Pages: Home Page - http://www.broadband.rogers.com and Search Page - http://livepage.apple.com/search - would this have something to do with the problem, ie having the Home Page set up with rogers? Yes - I do mean launching the program, on which I double click and then I get the message "The specified server could not be found". As mentioned above, this happens after I double click on Internet Explorer. Any answers??? Grateful for your help.
