Can you ping other sites? Ones that I use to test connectivity are google.com and yahoo.com. Are there any error messages about networking or TCP/IP in Event Viewer? -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.

| | RE: cannot communicate with www.microsoft.com (207.46.192.254) You don't say what hardware to use to connect. 1 Ring your ISP re the problem; it may be their software! 2. If you use a router, update the Firmware. 3. Update your Network Adaptor Drivers. 4.

| Vista Home Premium x64 | Re: cannot communicate with www.microsoft.com (207.46.192.254) Are you actually trying to get on to MS? Could just be the pc polling for updates or time or something like that. Could be a firewall setting or something recently changed in IE??? |
