Thank you for your response. It is true that it isn't necessary to uninstall Proxo, but I was troubleshooting a password cookie problem on the Opera browser and wanted to eliminate any possibility of interference from Proxo. The was no interference, but removing the proxy settings from Opera and IE didn't restore the dialup. I checked the dialup adapter and tcp-ip in network, which appeared normal, but found that a couple of windsock dlls were missing from the Windows directory. For some reason, I couldn't extract these from the CD and not being able to get online, I was left with no choice but the reformat. Like I said before, this may not have had anything to do with Proxo at all, but I just wanted to check on it.
