Hi, hope someone knows what I am talking about and this is a simple fix.
I have an AT&T cable modem running through a hardware SMC router to a network of 5 computers who don't experience this problem (so I don't think it's an IP thing or settings on the router).
My general internet connection works fine: I can use my browser, messenging service, e-mail, etc.
The problem comes when a program/application tries to connect to the internet (for updates or whatnot). The result is that programs like Kazaa that have internet browser-type interfaces don't work. Kazaa, Morpheus and the like require within-application internet connections to appear in a frame-like interface, and all I get is the "cannot load" error message.
This problem appears too when I want to connect to the Internet for updating information in Microsoft Money or when Norton Antivirus wants to access new virus definitions. All of this seems to point to the same problem...except I have no idea what it is!
Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
