I have 2 user accounts on my computer. One has all my poker stuff, the other just has a few games that I play when im on tilt <g>

Anyway, for the past 2 days on my poker user account I have had trouble with my browser. I can browse most sites fine, and play poker - but I have trouble logging into sites that require a login every time(neteller, hotmail, the "my account" section on empire - which means I cant cashout or deposit). I get a "the connection was refused when attempting to connect with" on neteller and hotmail with mozilla. Empire pulls up IE, of course, so i get a "this page cannot be displayed" error. The weird thing is if i access my other user account (the one with only games) i can access all the sites. This is not a long term solution though because I dont have any poker software installed on that account (and dont want to - I let other people access that account and dont want them to have access to my poker sites).

Any ideas? I have a brand new dell 8400. Both user accounts are set up the same currently with admin access, so I dont really know what could be causing the problem on one account and not the other.

Thanks.

oh what the heck. I have had this problem for the last 48 hours. 2 mins after I posted this message I checked Neteller and was able to log on, now everything is working fine. Bizarre.

Oh yeah, some advice might help too... clear the internet cache and all the temp files. I'm confident XP has a "clean internet files" somewhere in either the control panel or internet tools.
