After updating to SP2 my internet explorer won't connect to the internet but gives me a "page cannot be displayed" page with the error at the bottom "cannot find server or DNS error". I've tried dial-up and dsl and get the same thing. My ISP says that I'm connected and sending and receiving. I have run LSPFix and still no results. I cannot connect to the internet to re-install SP2 in case something got currpted during installation nor do I know of a way to repair or re-install IE6 with the sp2 upgrade. Please, can someone help. Thanks
