Hey All,
I'm running VirtualPC 6.1, and I have Windows 98 installed with the latest VPC Additions. My internet connection is through my ethernet adaptor using PPPoE.

How can I get internet acess on my VPC OS? I have tried everything and Win98 is able to ping and connect to site, though not download them, its really really weird.. Maybe something with the MTU settings?

Enable "Show Scripts menu", select "Select Networking type" and then select "Shared socket networking". Tell us if it works.

I have now installed Windows Xp and it still does the same thing. Just hangs on opening page...

Though I can ping the site, I can log into ssh, though browsing the net.. forget about it :/
