Proxo and dialup connections
« on: April 14, 2002, 11:39:09 PM »
I recently had to reformat C: to clear up a problem after uninstalling Proxo for troubleshooting purposes.  I was able to dialup the ISP but wasn't able to navigate anywhere.  Was this a coincidence, or is there some special steps to be taken when uninstalling it.  I have not yet reinstalled Proxo, because of this question.  Any help would be appreciated.

There is no need to uninstall Proxomitron. You can just start it or don't start it. Only thing you have to do is to set you browser settings back to not using the proxy (127.0.0.1 port 8080)

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.
