On XP when switching users, the internet stops working. how do I fix this?

Asked by msomohano in Windows XP Operating System, Internet Explorer Web Browser

Tags: Microsoft, Windows, XP

I have this XP machine at home and I have several user accounts on it.  They are all administrators, they all worked fine until recently.  Now all of a sudden, when I try to switch users the next user does not have internet access.  Most times I have to restart or shutdown the machine before it starts working again.  I've seen this problem before and it had something to do with the permisions on the machine, but since this time they are all admin, I can't  see how it would be the case.  I'm sure it's a quick fix but google is not providing me with input.  Maybe somebody here has gone thru it already and has an idea.Start Free Trial
