Hello all,

I've tried to do my research before resorting to posting a question.
However, the posts I have read - here and elsewhere - have to no avail
helped. I have Vista Home Premium on a new(er) Dell machine. Within the last
week, Windows Media Player has stopped connecting to the internet and I can
no long access the online media stores and get album information. It
continues to tell me that I'm not connected to the internet. I have made sure
that, in WMP options, "Connect to the Internet" is checked. Somewhere along
the road I read a post where someone mentioned a possible problem between IE
Beta and WMP. Does anyone know of a conflict? Any help you could offer would
be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
