Title: Web Shield, Netscape and ME
Post by: dafydd on August 08, 2006, 01:18:05 PM

Problem getting Webshield to work with Windows ME. It works perfectly with IE.
I looked in the support section for setting up the proxy server settings and the video for Firefox showed an identical screen to Netscape. But when I set the proxies the same I was unable to access the internet with Netscape.
Any help greatly appreciated!
I have been using Avast! for a couple of years now, and it is an excellent program.




regards,

Problem solved!!!

If it helps anyone else - the settings for Web Shield when using Netscape are exactly the same as in the video for Firefox.

The only thing it omits to say, is that for the changes to take effect, you must exit Netscape and then re-open the program.

Apologies for the stupid query!

The query isn't stupid especially if you learn from it and in reporting it you may help others making the same query.
