There are two Win 98se computers networked together through a lynksys
router. The router is wireless capable but the wireless is not being used.
Both computers can see each other. Both computers can see the router. With
or without the router(going directly through the dsl modem) get the error
'this page can not be found'. The only probable file I saw that may have
innitiated this is gosilla. I do know that some one was in the setup of the
network and changed one of the computer names. On one compLuter I took out
the network protacols and re set it up.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

You have Gozilla? Modern snakeoil. Get rid of it.

Search your computer for a hidden file called HOSTS. Rename to HOSTS.OLD.
Test.
