From: shaminda.samaratunge on 8 Nov 2006 22:28 Hi, I'm using Windows Mobile 5.0 (WM5) on my O2 Atom. I've been using the internet over WiFi without any problems till now. However, few days ago Internet Explorer stopped working and now I get the following error message. "The address is not valid. Check the address and try again." I can connect to the net using other applications like O2-Connect and MS Outlook. The issue is only with IE. Does anybody have an idea on what's going on? Is this some sort of a proxy issue? Any thoughts on this is highly appreciated. Thanks Shaminda.
From: David Hettel on 9 Nov 2006 04:28 One thing you could try is to go into the windows folder on your device and look for a program called welcome, and run it. It will reset some internal pointers on your device and may help. Also have you tried a soft reset? These would be the first steps. -- David Hettel Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.

Thanks David. I've tried both your suggestions. Still no luck. To make sure the issue is not with the internet browsers or anything to do with http requests, I have installed the evaluation version of Opera Mobile on my PDA, and it works perfectly fine. Do you know if it's possible to re-installed Pocket IE without actually reinstalling the entire operating system? or do something similar? Thanks again for your help. cheers Shaminda.
