i know i got the proxy settings right because when
i use a different proxy, it will return an error. but
with the right settings, there are no errors, but
there's also no page displayed..

plaese help..
That does not look right for the nameserver unless you are running your own DNS server on the netwrok you would need the namserver (DNS) from your own ISP to put in the file. Are you using NAT on the w2k firewall? How do you get the IP's you are using? Can you use ping or traceroute to get to the other machine(s) on the network or an address outside your network? To use ping or traceroute open a console window (clam shell icon on taskbar) and ping www.cnn.com or ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, traceroute www.cnn.com or traceroute xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx replace the xxx's with an actual IP. If you could would you post the output of the traceroute and ping commands so I can see them.
