Default Re: Outlook not connecting to gateway- but IE6 ok

mmmmm

I've not had a problem with Wingate before... and have been using it on 3
machines- 1 server- 2 clients- for 2yrs now

server computer and 1 client still work ok so I guess Wingate server is
configured for proxy.
I assumed something has gone wrong with the one pc, since for some weeks
I've had to keep resetting Wingate client every few minutes- then IE6 & OE6
would work... now I still have to do that for IE6 , but OE6 won't connect
at all...

I think its time to clean & reinstall everything on that PC- there must be a
problem somewhere around the 'integrated layers' of the stack or so-

thanks for your efforts
