Default Vista and Google

I have loaded Vista Beta 2 on to a spare H/D.

Network connection is into a USR ADSL router.

The only web page it will connect to is Google, no other, not even
192.168.1.1 (router).

I can send e-mail (smtp), but cannot receive them (pop)

I am completely baffled, on how Google will download, but no other site.

The router is perfect, sending this on original H/D using XP

Advice most welcome

regards

I got the internet from my first install and can access my router too. With
about 2 million Vista installs, this seems to be a problem only you have.
How about some more informaton about your setup???

And, maybe, any program you installed before you tried the internet
connections.

It's a bug in the web-based newsreader.
