Occassionallyi get the following error message "explorer caused an exception C06d007eH module SENS.dll.

Help!!

The problem was resolved by returning to an older registry that worked before installing the patch. I then tried reinstalling the ADODB patch and the SENS.dll errors began again. I corrected it by cleaning all aspects of my registry, system temp files, and completely reinstalling IE6 together with all Patches from Microsoft except ADODB.

** I have 4 PCs (2 wireless and 2 cabled) running through a couple of linksys routers connected to one 3Com cable modem going to the internet.
** 3 PCs are running Win98 and the 4th PC running WinME.
** All PCs are using various brands of NIC cards.
** All PCs connect to the internet just fine but it is only the Win98 PCs that 80% of the time have intermittant problems with web sites. ** I am managing my own web site from the U.S. that is hosted in the UK and when I attempt to pull up the site in a browser I get the 'The page cannot be displayed' error 95% of the time on all the Win98 PCs but have no problem whatsoever doing so from the WinME PC.
** The same holds true as the last point when attempting to connect to that same host to check email via Outlook on the Win98 PCs but have no problem whatsoever doing so from the WinME PC.

The only problem source points that I can think of would be:

1) OS
2) NIC
3) router
4) Cable modem
5) network configuration (NIC/Router/OS/Cable Modem)
6) ISP (configuration of my account/backbone connection)
7) Internet (time through hops/etc)
8) Web site host (configuration of my account)
9) Web site host in general

Windows 98 with internet explorer 6

Following is what I have already done to attempt to restore internet connectivity;
1. Uninstalled the 3COM adapter completely
2. Reinstalled the Linksys ethernet PCI card
3. verified that the card is working and does not have any conflicts
4. Updated the Winsock32.dll via SFC.
5. Ran the Internet Connection wizard.
6. Verified the IP addresses and gateway assigned by the router work
on the other computers

...and you tried to reset your Internet Connection settings?

Are you only having problems connecting to the Internet? Can you collect email?

Ok, then try this while you are connected to the Internet. PRograms, Start, MSDOS Prompt. Type: Ping 216.46.165.171. You should get four replies and it will give you the time it took to reach the server. If you do not get this, then you are not getting connectivity to the Internet through your modem/ISP.

Post back if you are still having problems.
